I must be doing something wrong. I only have the 2.6 git repo (so my tags
don't drill down to 2.6.x.y just 2.6.x) but my experiement isn't giving
the results I expected.

[Cloned repo]
$ git archive --format=tar --prefix linux-2.6.39/ v2.6.39 | md5sum

[Downloaded from kernel.org]
$ bzcat linux-2.6.39.tar.bz2 | md5sum
