* Fix chapter reference in CodingStyleJesper Juhl2007-05-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | commit 226a6b84aaaf1fac7a5d41cf4e7387fd9ba895d5 renumbered Chapter 11 in Documentation/CodingStyle to Chapter 12, but it didn't update the reference to that chapter further down in the file. This patch corrects the chapter reference.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+431
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
