Linux 3.1-rc5

So it's been another week, and it's time for another -rc.

However, master.kernel.org is still down, and there really hasn't been a ton of development going on, so I considered just skipping a week. But hey, the whole point (well, *one* of the points) of distributed development is that no single place is really any different from any other, so since I did a github account for my divelog thing, why not see how well it holds up to me just putting my whole kernel repo there too?

So while kernel.org is down for the count, let's just see how github does:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git

NOTE! One thing to look out for when you see a new random public hosting place usage like that is to verify that yes, it's really the person you think it is. So is it?

You can take a few different approaches:

(a) Heck, it's open source, I don't care who I pull from, I just want a new kernel, and not having a new update from kernel.org in the last few days, I *really* need my new kernel fix. I'll take it, because I need to exercise my CPU's by building randconfig kernels. Besides, I like living dangerously.

(b) Yeah, the email looks like it comes from Linus, and we all know that SMTP cannot possibly be spoofed, so it must be him.

(c) Ok, I can fetch that tree, and I know that Linus always does signed tags, and I can verify the 3.1-rc5 tag with Linus known public GPG key that I have somewhere. If it matches, I don't care who the person doing the release announcement is, I'll trust that Linus signed the tree

(d) I'll just wait for kernel.org to feel better.

Whatever works for you.

One thing to note: If you just do

git pull https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git

you probably won't get the tags, since it's not your origin branch. So do

git fetch --tags <...>

too, so that you get not only the actual changes, but the tag that you can verify too.

And I *would* suggest you just pull into an existing tree, rather than clone a new copy. I bet the github people will appreciate that.

Anything worth saying about the changes themselves? The appended shortlog pretty much speaks for itself: there really hasn't been much excitement on the kernel development front.

Now, if you want to talk to me about dive logging software, that's a whole different kettle of fish..
