Or will I need to convert/import it into svn? Hi Chris; The message above makes me think the hash returned by rev-list is also HEAD. Do this: git fetch && git pull ... to make sure your cloned repo is up to date. To do work with the branch in that state, I'd create a new branch based on the commit hash returned by rev-list. If you just want to build the kernel, the git-checkout command you gave above should result in your working copy being in a detached head state which is probably what you wanted.
