Why?
You should always have a current vanilla linus-2.6 BK tree locally, and just pull into it occaisionally. Then when you want to do work just clone it using links:
bk clone -l linus-2.6 drm-2.6
and fire away. This is the fastest way.
If you're going:
bk clone bk://linux.bkbits.net/linux-2.5 drm-2.6
then no wonder it takes all evening :-)
When I rebase I just go:
cd linus-2.6 bk pull cd .. mv tree treework bk clone -l linus-2.6 tree cd tree bk pull ../treework
and that takes less than 10 minutes even on my super slow UltraSPARC machines :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
