Ketchup is a tool for updating or switching between versions of the
Linux kernel source. It can:

- find the latest versions of numerous KernelTrees
- calculate which patches are needed to move to that version
- download any patches or tarballs that aren't cached
- check GPG signatures where available
- apply and unapply patches to get the desired result
- call hooks like quilt push/pop before and after

The latest release can be found at:
