Right, so -rc1 has been released so I can consider this. Just a couple of things:

Linus (and the rest of us) is being a bit nmore paranoid about
where to fetch trees from. Public git hosters (like gitorious) can be
problematic since it is hard for us to verify the owners of trees
reliably. You either need to apply for a kernel.org account, or you will
need to add a signed tag to your tree before asking Linus to pull from
it. And that atg will have to be singned with a GPG key that can be
verified by Linus ...

I am not sure how to translate that gitorious URI above into a
simple, publically fetchable URI (git://gitorious.org...).
