Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!

+config ARCNET
+ tristate "ARCnet support"
+ ---help---
+ If you have a network card of this type, say Y and check out the
+ (arguably) beautiful poetry in
+ <file:Documentation/networking/arcnet.txt>.
+
+ You need both this driver, and the driver for the particular ARCnet
+ chipset of your card. If you don't know, then it's probably a
+ COM90xx type card, so say Y (or M) to "ARCnet COM90xx chipset
+ support" below.
+
+ You might also want to have a look at the Ethernet-HOWTO, available
+ from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>(even though ARCnet
+ is not really Ethernet).
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called arcnet.
+
+config ARCNET_1201
+ tristate "Enable standard ARCNet packet format (RFC 1201)"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ help
+ This allows you to use RFC1201 with your ARCnet card via the virtual
+ arc0 device. You need to say Y here to communicate with
+ industry-standard RFC1201 implementations, like the arcether.com
+ packet driver or most DOS/Windows ODI drivers. Please read the
+ ARCnet documentation in <file:Documentation/networking/arcnet.txt>
+ for more information about using arc0.
+
+config ARCNET_1051
+ tristate "Enable old ARCNet packet format (RFC 1051)"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ ---help---
+ This allows you to use RFC1051 with your ARCnet card via the virtual
+ arc0s device. You only need arc0s if you want to talk to ARCnet
+ software complying with the "old" standard, specifically, the DOS
+ arcnet.com packet driver, Amigas running AmiTCP, and some variants
+ of NetBSD. You do not need to say Y here to communicate with
+ industry-standard RFC1201 implementations, like the arcether.com
+ packet driver or most DOS/Windows ODI drivers. RFC1201 is included
+ automatically as the arc0 device. Please read the ARCnet
+ documentation in <file:Documentation/networking/arcnet.txt> for more
+ information about using arc0e and arc0s.
+
+config ARCNET_RAW
+ tristate "Enable raw mode packet interface"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ help
+ ARCnet "raw mode" packet encapsulation, no soft headers. Unlikely
+ to work unless talking to a copy of the same Linux arcnet driver,
+ but perhaps marginally faster in that case.
+
+config ARCNET_CAP
+ tristate "Enable CAP mode packet interface"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ help
+ ARCnet "cap mode" packet encapsulation. Used to get the hardware
+ acknowledge back to userspace. After the initial protocol byte every
+ packet is stuffed with an extra 4 byte "cookie" which doesn't
+ actually appear on the network. After transmit the driver will send
+ back a packet with protocol byte 0 containing the status of the
+ transmition:
+ 0=no hardware acknowledge
+ 1=excessive nak
+ 2=transmition accepted by the reciever hardware
+
+ Received packets are also stuffed with the extra 4 bytes but it will
+ be random data.
+
+ Cap only listens to protocol 1-8.
+
+config ARCNET_COM90xx
+ tristate "ARCnet COM90xx (normal) chipset driver"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ help
+ This is the chipset driver for the standard COM90xx cards. If you
+ have always used the old ARCnet driver without knowing what type of
+ card you had, this is probably the one for you.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called com90xx.
+
+config ARCNET_COM90xxIO
+ tristate "ARCnet COM90xx (IO mapped) chipset driver"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ ---help---
+ This is the chipset driver for the COM90xx cards, using them in
+ IO-mapped mode instead of memory-mapped mode. This is slower than
+ the normal driver. Only use it if your card doesn't support shared
+ memory.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called com90io.
+
+config ARCNET_RIM_I
+ tristate "ARCnet COM90xx (RIM I) chipset driver"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ ---help---
+ This is yet another chipset driver for the COM90xx cards, but this
+ time only using memory-mapped mode, and no IO ports at all. This
+ driver is completely untested, so if you have one of these cards,
+ please mail <dwmw2@infradead.org>, especially if it works!
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called arc-rimi.
+
+config ARCNET_COM20020
+ tristate "ARCnet COM20020 chipset driver"
+ depends on ARCNET
+ help
+ This is the driver for the new COM20020 chipset. It supports such
+ things as promiscuous mode, so packet sniffing is possible, and
+ extra diagnostic information.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called com20020.
+
+config ARCNET_COM20020_ISA
+ tristate "Support for COM20020 on ISA"
+ depends on ARCNET_COM20020 && ISA
+
+config ARCNET_COM20020_PCI
