OK - this is on
git remote -v origin git://git.denx.de/u-boot-net.git
git log --max-count=1 commit 97cfe86163505ea18e7ff7b71e78df5bb03dad57
(Is there a better way to tell if git is up to date?)
Was there any problems with this one?
Well, "git describe" needs less typing, and gives better information.
Thanks for the tip.

when I switch to the net tree, I get:
rgetz@pinky:~/blackfin/mainline/u-boot/net> git remote -v origin git://git.denx.de/u-boot-net.git rgetz@pinky:~/blackfin/mainline/u-boot/net> git describe --all HEAD^ warning: tag 'U-Boot-1_2_0' is really 'tags/U-Boot-1_2_0' here U-Boot-1_2_0-6291-g0b23fb3
That is because Ben hasn't done a git pull from the master since U-Boot-1_2_0? Or have I don't something wrong on my end?

I never pull from the master, but follow the workflow described here:
http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/CustodianGitTrees
I have a local 'u-boot' branch that pulls from the master, then re-base the net branch to that one. I'm very far from being a git master, but thus far I've never seen problems.
regards, Ben
