Hi,
With the following commit running "make modules_install install" over sshfs (and I suppose nfs) is extremely painful:
commit fb994ecc2b1c214951366c2ba5d8b121f0010d1f Author: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Date: Wed May 5 10:41:44 2010 -0700
kbuild: Fix checking of scm-identifier variable
I'm looking Makefile in the -mm branch (dated 2010-04-28-16-53) and seeing what looks like a bug in the checking of scm-identifier. The "ifneq ($scm-identifier)" seems to always execute "ifeq ($(LOCALVERSION,)) ...". This patch fixes the checking of scm-identifier.

I compile my kernel on my workstation and then mount working tree over sshfs and install on my laptop over wireless. It worked well for the last few years but the latest changeset slows this process down to a crawl - traversing git repository over the network is not the fastest process out there. Any cfhance we could generate the tag at compile time as opposed to install time?
Thanks.
