[ofa-general] OFED Release tarballs

I've been tracking OFED development for quite a while, pulling the occasional 
snapshot from the git repositories.

And after looking at what is in the git repositories, and then comparing it to 
what is in the OFED release (in this case the 1.2 release), I've been unable 
to find how one gets from what's released in the various git repositories to 
what you get in the OFED release.

The main reason is because before OFED 1.2 was 'released', I was building 
experimental RPMs from the git sources, and more than anything, I'd like to 
know how the OFED distribution went from what's in the git repositories to 
its final release state; simply checking out the OFED-1.2 tag doesn't seem to 
be sufficient to get everything I see in the official release.

Obviously, I've already looked inside the src.rpm's; many of the files that 
are 'missing' in git are generated by ./autogen.sh in the various git 
repositories, so I'm less concerned with those differences.

But there are a few things that I haven't been able to find so far (at least 
in the repositories named 'ofed_1_2/<foo>')

Are there other repositories that have 'stuff' that made it into the OFED 1.2 
distribution that aren't from the 'ofed_1_2/*' repositories?
