After doing a bit of digging, I've figured out what needs to be done. If you
have just cloned the wireless-dev branch you need to do the following:
git checkout --track -b
where will be the name used for the local branch
and is one of the branches from git branch -r
For example:
git branch -r in the new wireless-dev clone shows the following:
origin/HEAD
origin/adm8211
origin/b43
origin/everything
origin/iwlwifi
origin/mac80211
origin/master
origin/merged-upstream
origin/mm-master
origin/p54
origin/rt2x00
origin/ssb
origin/zd1211rw
Therefore we can create a local branch called everyting that contains
everything from origin/everything by issuing the command:
git checkout --track -b everything origin/everything
You should then be able to apply any b43 or mac80211 patches that have not yet
been applied and subsequently build a new kernel.
