I think most people don't use Git to track kernel sources, so they just
download full tarball from kernel.org, then applying stable update
patches (normal or incremental). I also used to do the same, but now I use
Git because when there is stable kernel update, I can simply `git fetch`,
then checkout desired stable branch, and `git merge`.
