That is a potential source of confusion since this is the xen git repo, 
not the tip one.
git remote add xen git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git
would make more sense.

You are still looking at the wrong branch. The xen/master branch in the 
xen.git repository is the DomU head, so won't necessarily contain the Dom0 
stuff I assume you want to test. Maybe the more stable bits of Dom0 will 
be added to that branch in due course, but at the moment key bits of Dom0 
are missing.
Thus you should be replacing xen/master with xen/dom0/hackery
