This is fine.

'git branch -r' will show you all the remote branches.  To check out
the 'next' branch, simply do:

'git checkout -b next origin/next'

My setup is slightly different because I clone Linus' tree and add
Paul's and my own as remotes using 'git remote add'.  But that's just
how I prefer to operate, and there is nothing wrong with cloning my
tree itself if you are only looking for 4xx changes.
