Sounds good. Maybe we should also hint that people can clone the git tree 
using the --reference argument, that saves lots of disk space.

I've made a small script that added the proper instructions to the existing
clones of the kernel tree. Please check if it is ok. 

The script is not automatic. When I have some time, I'll integrate it with some 
tool to run it automatically after a new tree is added there, but, for now, I 
need to run it after I notice that somebody created a new tree. The script has 
a basic test to discover that the tree is based on Kernel tree: it checks if a 
"v2.6.32" tag exist at the new tree (ok, I confess: I was very lazy when I 
wrote 
the script... it works with the current trees, but we need a more reliable way, 
if we want to run automatically).


Cheers,
Mauro

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Media controller tree updated

2010-04-30 Thread Laurent Pinchart
Hi everybody,

The next version of the media controller patches is available in git at

http://git.linuxtv.org/pinchartl/v4l-dvb-media.git

To avoid putting too much pressure on the linuxtv.org git server, please make 
sure you reference an existing mainline Linux git tree when cloning v4l-dvb-
media (see the --reference option to git-clone).

Beside the media controller core, the tree contains a uvcvideo driver ported 
to the media controller. If you want to test the media controller code with 
the OMAP3 ISP driver, you can check out the devel branch in the 
http://gitorious.org/omap3camera/mainline/ tree instead.

WARNING: Don't unplug the device or unload the driver while holding a 
/dev/media or /dev/subdev device open. This problem will be fixed in a future 
release.
