- There is a web interface (somewhere!) that is available that will allow you to specifically omit specific patches and download a new kernel. This is a clunky web front end to the git tree.
Well, that makes the whole thing completely pointless, doesn't it? One bit of automation, a pile of rather slow downloading and bingo, the patches are split out again. Only effect: lots of extra bandwidth cost for RH.
