Hello, I hope that this question is not off topic off this mailing list but I haven't found any better place to ask.
I use various versions of the linux kernel which I compile from source. I decided to get rid of all my source tar-balls and clone the git repository of the linux kernel. http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git seems for me to be the right repository to clone. The oldest Linux version I use is version 2.6.30.10 which can be downloaded from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.30.10.tar.bz2 . I now tried to checkout a branch in my local repository which is based on this version. I looked at the tags and noticed that only the major releases have a tag in the master branch. git tag -l . v2.6.30 v2.6.30-rc1 v2.6.30-rc2 v2.6.30-rc3 v2.6.30-rc4 v2.6.30-rc5 v2.6.30-rc6 v2.6.30-rc7 v2.6.30-rc8 . I am new to git and somehow lost in this big repository. What are the right techniques to checkout/find version 2.6.30.10 in this repository? thanks for your help.
