320 The -rc patches are not incremental, they apply to a base 2.6.x kernel, just
321 like the 2.6.x.y patches described above. The kernel version before the -rcN
322 suffix denotes the version of the kernel that this -rc kernel will eventually

360 -git patches are not incremental and apply either to a base 2.6.x kernel or
361 a base 2.6.x-rc kernel -- you can see which from their name.
362 A patch named 2.6.12-git1 applies to the 2.6.12 kernel source and a patch
363 named 2.6.13-rc3-git2 applies to the source of the 2.6.13-rc3 kernel.

409 sure you have up-to-date backups -- that goes for any experimental kernel but
424 kernels are released in between each -rc kernel (1 to 3 is common).
425 The -mm kernels apply to either a base 2.6.x kernel (when no -rc kernels
426 have been released yet) or to a Linus -rc kernel.
