I'd like to use/develop-against/patch the ALSA drivers from:

However, that's a complete kernel tree rather than the subset that's available in snapshots at:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/alsa/alsa-driver/
I figured I could just grab the above git, and also:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/alsa-driver-build.git
... to build just the ALSA driver modules. However, I can't see how to get gitcompile from there to build the sound subset of a complete kernel tree rather than e.g. something like:
http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-driver.git;a=summary
Can somebody give me a clue? Thanks very much.
(I guess I could just build the entire kernel, but that's a lot more time than just the audio modules)
You may just create this tree from git repos (do not mix the sources):
alsa/alsa-driver (the alsa-driver.git tree from git.alsa-project.org or Takashi's tree from git.kernel.org) alsa/alsa-kernel (the alsa-kernel.git tree from git.alsa-project.org or Takashi's tree from git.kernel.org)
and do:
cd alsa/alsa-driver ./gitcompile
The script should automatically detect the linux-2.6 tree and do the out-of-kernel compilation.
