+ cd linux-2.6-pvops.git.tmp
+ git checkout -b xen/stable-2.6.32.x xen/xen/stable-2.6.32.x
fatal: git checkout: branch xen/stable-2.6.32.x already exists

Can you go into linux-2.6-pvops.git directory and do:

git branch -a

And show us the output?

I guess the remote branches are there but with git checkout -b option to create a local branch name conflict with remote branch somehow if I am not wrong. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Here is the patch which I only tested with unpack the xen-4.0.1.tar.gz then cd to the source then make prep-kernels after applying the below patch:

     fi
     touch $@

OR without the patch you can do:

# make V=2 XEN_LINUX_GIT_LOCALBRANCH=local/xen/stable-2.6.32.x prep-kernels

Basically, just overwrite the default XEN_LINUX_GIT_LOCALBRANCH variable which is default to:

XEN_LINUX_GIT_LOCALBRANCH ?= $(XEN_LINUX_GIT_REMOTEBRANCH)

# grep XEN_LINUX_GIT_LOCALBRANCH ./*/*
./buildconfigs/src.git-clone:XEN_LINUX_GIT_LOCALBRANCH ?= $(XEN_LINUX_GIT_REMOTEBRANCH)
./buildconfigs/src.git-clone:        (cd $(LINUX_SRCDIR).tmp; git checkout -b $(XEN_LINUX_GIT_LOCALBRANCH) $(XEN_LINUX_GITREV) ); \

Hope the above is useful ;)

Thanks.

Kindest regards,
Giam Teck Choon
