<<Anchor(git)>>
= Setup linux-m68k git =

Initial clone.
{{{
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geert/linux-m68k.git
cd linux-m68k
}}}

Branch Checkout.

Old git version (lenny).
{{{
git checkout -t -b m68k-v2.6.29 origin/m68k-v2.6.29
}}}

New git version (sid).
{{{ 
git checkout -t origin/m68k-v2.6.29
}}}

Add the Remote if you didn't clone from linux-m68k.git
{{{
git remote add linux-m68k git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geert/linux-m68k.git
}}}

Make sure everything is up-to-date.
{{{
git remote update
}}}

<<Anchor(svn)>>
= Setup Debian kernel svn =
{{{
svn co svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/dists/sid
}}}


<<Anchor(git2svn)>>
= Put Git Patches Under Debian svn =

Export patches.
{{{
dir=../sid/linux-2.6/debian/patches/bugfix/m68k/2.6.29
git format-patch -o $dir v2.6.29..m68k-v2.6.29
}}}

Add patches to Debian series file.

{{{
cd ../sid/linux-2.6/debian/patches/series
series=1-extra
echo >> $series
echo "#m68k patches for linux-m68k.git" >> $series
find ../bugfix/m68k/2.6.29 -print | sort | sed -e 's;../;+ ;' | sed -e 's;$; m68k;' >> $series
}}}


<<Anchor(environ)>>
= Setup Build Environment =

Setup a [[M68k/Gcc#cross|cross-compiler]] if necessary.

Fetch debian original tarball (only available after an initial release).
{{{
apt-get --download-only source linux-2.6
tar -xvzf linux-2.6_2.6.29.orig.tar.gz 
}}}

Symlink the debian directory from svn.
{{{
cd linux-2.6-2.6.29
ln -s ../sid/linux-2.6/debian debian
}}}

Build it.
{{{
# add -b or -B as needed
dpkg-buildpackage -am68k -rfakeroot
# or
#DEB_HOST_ARCH=m68k debuild -B -am68k
}}}


<<Anchor(notes)>>
= Notes =

 * linux-m68k doesn't track point releases, so extra patches may conflict. Drop them from the patches and series.
 * If gcc-4.x doesn't work you can change it in debian/config/m68k/defines.
 * If everything builds fine, commit to svn and push.
