ketchup 0.9.6 kernel upgrade tool released

[Matt Mackall]

Ketchup is a tool for updating or switching between versions of the
Linux kernel source. It can:

 - find the latest versions of numerous KernelTrees
 - calculate which patches are needed to move to that version
 - download any patches or tarballs that aren't cached
 - check GPG signatures where available
 - apply and unapply patches to get the desired result
 - call hooks like quilt push/pop before and after

The latest release can be found at:
