cg-update origin
and then I edited drivers/serial/8250.c
As discovered using:
sh -x /usr/bin/cg-diff drivers/serial/8250.c
it appears that cg-diff does a
git-update-cache --refresh >/dev/null
each time it's run, which is taking the bulk of the time. Also note
that curiously, it exits with status 1.
