1. Clone the tree (once): $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git
This won't do what you want. What you want is something more like: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git $ git remote add linux-next git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git $ git fetch linux-next $ git fetch --tags linux-next which will leave you a linux-next tree that you can update.
$ git pull
This will *not* work on linux-next. Once you build the tree as above, you want to use 'git remote update' instead of pull.
