In the effort to keep the kvm userspace component more compatible with upstream qemu, the kvm-userspace git repository has now been replaced by the qemu-kvm git repository. This announcement was made a few days ago on April 23rd 2009. This will allow for easier merging and cherry-picking in either direction which is also being facilitated by qemu also converting its tree from svn to git. Below lists the following differences between the new git reposity and the previous kvm-userspace.git repository:

• everything under qemu/ has been moved to the top-level directory
• everything not under qemu/ has been moved under a new top-level
  directory, kvm/
• all qemu subversion commits have been rewritten to be compatible with
  what will become the master qemu git repository
• all branches and tags have been converted
• qemu-kvm.git builds standalone (does not require kvm.git)

The qemu-kvm git repository can be found at

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/qemu-kvm.git

and the web interface to the qemu-kvm git repository code can be found here
