But, note that most Linux Kernel developers have already created a copy of Linus Torvalds' upstream kernel tree for reference:
$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6
The Linux ACPI is based on Linus' tree and shares almost all of the same history. So, if you've got a copy of Linus' tree, simply create the Linux ACPI tree, with reference to that shared history:
$ git clone --reference linux-2.6/ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-acpi-2.6
To test:
$ patch --dry-run -Np1 < acpi.patch
For real:
$ patch -Np1 < acpi.patch
egrep -r --include "*.[chS]" "myregularexpression" .
Add "-w" to avoid catching words in which your search term is a substring.
$ git-diff --patch-with-stat
