Sort of.  It's created from two GIT repos,
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-2.6.git
and
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/alsa-driver-build.git

The former is the kernel git tree that is pulled for linux-next tree
regularly, and is listed in kernel MAINTAINERS file.
The latter git repo is the build stub for alsa-driver external builds.
The latter contains no real kernel codes.

The alsa-driver-snapshot (and also daily tarballs) are created at each
commit to these trees automatically on my server.  Also this triggers
alsa-driver-kmp packages for each SUSE distribution on OBS, too.


thanks,

Takashi
