46kmemcheck can only be downloaded using git. If you want to write patches 46As of version 2.6.31-rc1, kmemcheck is included in the mainline kernel.
47against the current code, you should use the kmemcheck development branch of
48the tip tree. It is also possible to use the linux-next tree, which also
49includes the latest version of kmemcheck.
50
51Assuming that you've already cloned the linux-2.6.git repository, all you
52have to do is add the -tip tree as a remote, like this:
53
54 $ git remote add tip git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git
55
56To actually download the tree, fetch the remote:
57
58 $ git fetch tip
59
60And to check out a new local branch with the kmemcheck code:
61
62 $ git checkout -b kmemcheck tip/kmemcheck
63
64General instructions for the -tip tree can be found here:
