git clone linus

AKA "git config remote.origin.url <your-digispeaker-url-here>"

There is more to this:

You must be hiding something.

jonsmirl@terra:~/foo$ git clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git ds
clone.....

This sets up branch.master.{remote,merge} to {origin,master}.

jonsmirl@terra:~/foo/ds$ git config remote.origin.url
http://git.digispeaker.com/projects/digispeaker-kernel.git

This does not change that setting.

It edited origin:[remote "origin"]
        url = http://git.digispeaker.com/projects/digispeaker-kernel.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

jonsmirl@terra:~/foo/ds$ git pull
You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
want to merge with, and 'branch.master.merge' in
your configuration file does not tell me either.  Please
name which branch you want to merge on the command line and
try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
See git-pull(1) for details on the refspec.

And this does not come up here.

Maybe you don't have a master branch on digispeaker.

At digispeaker remote repo:
[daedalus]$ git branch
  m24
  m25
  m26
  m28
  m29
* master
[daedalus]$

gitweb is at:
git.digispeaker.com

[daedalus]$ cd refs
[daedalus]$ find
.
./heads
./heads/m24
./heads/m25
./heads/m26
./heads/m28
./heads/m29
./heads/master
./tags
[daedalus]$

Ciao,
Dscho
