    how to reduce time of git pulling each time when you do a make world on Xen source

    I am compiling xen from source and each time I do a make world
    it basically gives some or the other error
    my problem are not those errors ( I am trying to debug them)
    but the problem is each time when I do a make world

    Xen basically pulls things from git repository
    Code:
       + rm -rf linux-2.6-pvops.git linux-2.6-pvops.git.tmp
       + mkdir linux-2.6-pvops.git.tmp
       + rmdir linux-2.6-pvops.git.tmp
       + git clone -o xen -n
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git
    linux-2.6-pvops.git.tmp
       Initialized empty Git repository in
    /usr/src/xen-4.0.1/linux-2.6-pvops.git.tmp/.git/
       remote: Counting objects: 1941611, done.
       remote: Compressing objects: 100% (319127/319127), done.
    remote: Total 1941611 (delta 1614302), reused 1930655 (delta 1604595)
    **Receiving objects: 20% (1941611/1941611), 98.17 MiB | 87 KiB/s, done.**
    and if you notice the last line it is still consuming my bandwidth
    pulling things from internet.How can I stop this step each time and
    use existing git repository?
    When I searched an answer to this question I came across a link
    http://lists.xensource.com/archives/.../msg00476.html
    http://web.archiveorange.com/archive...CfIzdpcmkWRz5w

    but I am not able to clearly understand where Boris mentions

    make xen etc.
    "Then clone JF's Git Repo, checkout git branch as you want and build
    corresponding
    kernel.That's all i always do."
    Which kernel is he referring to is it Dom0?
    because when I ran make xen it worked without any problem and I can see in my
    /usr/src/xen-4.0.1/dist/install/boot
    xen-4.0.1.gz xen-4.0.gz xen-4.gz xen.gz xen-syms-4.0.1
    but I am not clear with how to save this git pull each time.
    I have given a link which I think is a solution to my problem but I am not able understand what they have mentioned.Can some one explain that.
