[Linux-mips-kernel] helper script

[Pete P. <pp...@pa...>]

Don't know if this would be useful to anyone else but Paul mentioned a 
similar script that he uses for another drop in tree. This one works for 
me and helps keep the linux-mips tree in a separate directory so I don't 
have cvs problems when updating, committing, etc.  The script takes the 
linux-mips tree, the stock kernel tree, and a new development directory 
as inputs. It copies the stock tree to the new dev directory; then it 
recurses through the new dev directory and:
* renames all files that are in common between the linux-mips and new 
dev tree directories to *.stock
* creates a link in the new dev directory that points to the file in the 
linux-mips directory.

That way you can develop in the new directory, but you can still easily 
update and commit from within the linux-mips directory.
