Yes, but how do "advanced git users" kernel developers work? Do they just
do 1 clone and build / clean every time they want to test another
configuration / arch, or do they clone -l or what? Do they create branches
for each development thread, then pull / push between trees?...

But I don't want to re-build. Apart from i386 I build for a couple of ARM
and PPC targets too...

Strange. Is my git 1.4.0 criminally broken? I have a clone of Linus' tree
on a USB disk on ext3 without any objects, which I just cloned at some
point and then did a couple of pulls from the same source. Now
1545084 /mnt/sda2/kernel-git/linux-2.6/
1255084 /mnt/sda2/kernel-git/linux-2.6/.git
Interestingly, both end up with 5084. For comparison:
465044 /mnt/sda2/kernel-git/powerpc
174980 /mnt/sda2/kernel-git/powerpc/.git
But that's a freshly cloned tree, without any pulls. I re-cloned it,
because the tree I had earlier had the problem with each pull:
Unpacking 12452 objects
100% (12452/12452) done
* refs/heads/origin: does not fast forward to branch 'master' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc;
not updating.
Wonderful and strange git world...
Thanks
Guennadi
