Update kernel source to latest?
I cloned the linux kernel source from "git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git". When i type "git tag" in the source folder i see version up to "v3.9-rc8", but kernel.org shows latest version is 3.14-rc8. How can i update my source repository to the latest.

Usually, you can just do "git pull".

Tags are sorted lexicographically, so v3.14-rc8 is < v3.9-rc8. Scroll up or pipe to less.
