This includes the wireless-2.6 repository.

The main branch is fairly irrelevant, as you must choose the branch
you wish:

Ok, I'll bite.  Hopefully I'm not the only one tripping on shoe laces...

Here is what I did -- what am I doing wrong?

Following is using cogito 0.10:

REPO=rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pubs/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git
cg-clone ${REPO}
.... get coffee, etc. ... come back and I have a netdev-2.6 tree ...
cg-branch-add wifi ${REPO}#wifi
cg-update wifi
.... connects and attempts to download but fails out with:

----------------
receiving file list ... done
client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify some filenames or the
--recursive option?

rsync: link_stat
"/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git/heads/wifi" (in pub)
failed: No such file or directory (2)

Looks like cogito is using $repo/heads/$branch, whereas my git repo is 
using $repo/branches/$branch.

You can achieve what's necessary with

rsync --verbose --delete --stats --progress \
-a rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git/ .git

and then

( cd .git ; rm -f HEAD ; ln -s branches/wifi HEAD )

and then

git-read-tree $(cat .git/HEAD) && git-checkout-cache -q -f -a && git-update-cache --refresh

For what it's worth, this is only netdev-2.6 as it appeared in 
BitKeeper.  I am only now merging all the emailed patches since BK devel 
stopped into git, which includes the ipw code you submitted.
