Kernel Development and Cogito
Hello All,
I would like to start working on some kernel-janitor stuff, and I've cloned Linus' tree using Cogito (cg-clone). My issue is that I can't find any documentation on how I would go about working on this tree now, like if I make a change, how do I create a patch that I can send off to kernel-janitors, and LKML, similarly, how would I reset my tree to be exactly like Linus' if I muck something up badly. Is there a document out there describing the usage of Cogito, or can someone outline the basics of using Cogito to dump my changes for distribution? Thanks for your help!

just a note:
If you want to learn about Cogito, you can use Linus' git tree.
But if all you want is to send some patches, you can as well work from the latest -kj or -mm tree without using any source code management system.

"Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out
of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days.
"Only a promise," Lao Er said.
