[ewg] How to create ofa_kernel-1.4.src.rpm from GIT?

[Amar Mudrankit]

What is the method to create an OFED-1.4.tgz package out of its GIT
branch? Currently, it would be enough if I could get
ofa_kernel-1.x.src.rpm.

Is there any standard script available which will extract the source
from given GIT branch and prepare source rpms? I have OFED-1.4 GIT
ofed_kernel branch cloned on my local setup
(git://git.openfabrics.org/ofed_1_4/linux-2.6.git) and I tried to run
ofed_scripts/ofed_makedist.sh script which actually creates a set of
.tgz corresponding to each distribution. Is it the right way?

So, a script which would package sources into ofa_kernel-1.4.src.rpm
by extracting them from GIT branch would be helpful.

Thanks and Regards,
Amar
