For now the solution I came up with is to: 1. Trust that this github repository is from "official sources":
https://github.com/torvalds/linux 2. Clone it. 3. Rename these 3 files remotely/on the repository via github and it's file editing feature, which fortunately also allows a rename of file. error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.c' error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.h' error: invalid path 'include/soc/arc/aux.h' To WorkAroundAux.c and such. By the way, this "aux" is a limitation inside NTFS file system, so linux can be affected as well. Also directories with aux in it will have the same problem. Not sure if "auxbla" or 'blaaux" will cause it. For now I assume that if it starts with "aux" it's illegal. I haven't tried yet, but I am pretty sure this is going to work. If not then I will report back here. If I run into any other problem, then maybe too or I go into that other thread if 6 GB of RAM is not enough to checkout the linux kernel ;) ;) ;) yes winks... that could be another reason, to never use one of these systems for any serious source code work, because again that would be horrible not to be able to access your source code :P* Oh yeah before I forget, why is this: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git It does not mention the linux repository on github ? Is the Linus Torvalds account on github REAL ? Or is it fake ? Is there anyway to be sure ? Maybe some kind of signature check from a mailing list or something where he announces he joined github ? This is supposed to be his account: is it real ? https://github.com/torvalds If it is real then why does it not mention so on this page ?: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git Bye for now, Skybuck =D -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
