I am looking to download/clone the source of kernel 5.0.0-37. I am looking to do this exclusively via Git. I know there are other ways to download the source, but I am looking for info on the Git repo that contains the 5.0.0-37 kernel. If anyone knows what it is, can you please share it?

All kernel sources for Ubuntu 18.04 bionic can be found at https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-bionic.git
The master branch contains the initial 4.15 kernel.
The hwe branch has the latest HWE kernel. It is 5.0 at the moment.
The hwe-edge has the next HWE 5.3 kernel.
There are some other branches that can also be checked out if needed.
You can get the latest HWE kernel by running:
git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-bionic.git
cd ubuntu-bionic
git checkout hwe
That will get the current HWE bionic that is the 5.0.0-37 kernel now.

My only remaining question is, how did you know to checkout with 'hwe' for 5.0.0.-37? Where exactly did you find that info? – Angelo M Dec 06 '19 at 02:22
