Hi Dear Linux enthusiasts,
I recently (yesterday) began to fetch (clone, fetch, ...) the current Linux GIT repository: http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
I first failed to fetch it through any protocol ( git:// , http:// , https:// ) because of my UNRELIABLE WiFi connexion.
I eventually managed to download the following file :

And all these .pack and .idx files appear to be valid ones, with respect to the "git verify-pack" command.
This set of files seems to be consistent with the current state (by that time) of the Linux git repository (torvalds/linux-2.6.git)
Now, I would like YOU to tell ME how I can checkout from the PACKs I've just downloaded.
How may I populate the working directory , objects/xy/... , refs/... , ... hierarchies to make my (local) repository usable.
I suspect I shall find this information in documentation related to the "git fetch" command, but I haven't managed to get it right.
Your HELP is very welcome.
If you prefer not to pollute LKML, you may choose to aswer me at:

Thanks in advance,
Valentin
