SubjectRe: GIT - cloning torvalds/linux-2.6.git repository trouble.
From
One traditionally uses "git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
linux-2.6" to create a local copy of the Linux 2.6 tree. You, surely,
weren't downloading those PACK files individually were you?
