Please don't. ;-) Current -hh tree is a good "reference point" for many
almost-ready devices (hx4700, for example). Rebasing now means a lot of
stuff will break, and nobody will ever fix it.

I would suggest to not do single -hh tree, but simply mainline everything
you're currently working at.

Yea, kernel.org is using GIT already. ;-)

p.s. Of course it would be great if hh.o provided its own git hosting,
but it isn't that important, since there are a lot of free hostings out
there. What is really sad is that mainling lists are almost dead.
