 follow the wiki for sunxi kernel compile - ok if you've already got a
linux git repo checked out either use henrik's trick
(--reference=/home/the/source/you/already/checked/out) or my favourite
is to just edit .git/config and add things like this:

[remote "sunxi"]
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
    url = git://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi
[branch "stage/sunxi-3.4"]
    remote = sunxi
    merge = refs/heads/stage/sunxi-3.4

those two sections - remote and branch - go together.

then you can do "git pull sunxi master" - someone else will probably
advise a better way - followed by "git checkout stage/sunxi-3.4"

substitute-of-course-the-url-given-in-whatever-wiki-you-follow-put-the-git-clone-argument-into-the-url-in-the-remote-section
and substitute-of-course-the-branch-name-given-in-whatever-wiki-you-follow-put-the-branch-name-into-the-branch-section
remember also to add it into the merge= as well so if the branch
you're recommended to check out is "sunxi-3.4" then alter the merge=
to merge=refs/heads/sunxi-3.4

then copy that config-eoma68-a20 file as .config (actually it should
already be there), run the make
CROSS_COMPILE=whatever-the-compiler-prefix-is-recommended- menuconfig
then hit "exit" and "save" and then run
whatever-the-make-command-is-recommended.
