    Linux kernel does not accept contributions from github so this repo was always like that

    The only new thing here is this

        It’s basically a read only mirror with links to the right place. That makes it easier to find or clone for many people

              Is it an option? Can’t find it. (But GitHub is confusing and I’m old, so maybe there’s something?)
