rsync torvalds@penguin.transmeta.com:/home/torvalds/src/linux \ ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/LIVE/linux
would be the real helper for people like me whose only real issue now is bothering Linus all the time to make pre-patches so I can send him known clean diffs.
This is orthogonal to the patch management system, but I agree this would be highly useful. Would Linus be willing to have an hourly cron job that rsync'ed his live kernel sources to ftp.kernel.org? (I suspect a number of patch submitters would then have rsync jobs that would sync from kernel.org to their local directories. I know I would.)
It would certainly make it easier to send clean patches to Linus.
