Wow.... scarily accurate. http://git-man-page-generator.lokaltog.net/#2d1a13476a5f32c4db27fd7aa89a84f3 Anything to do with git submodules is virtually impossible to distinguish from an elaborate practical joke. I know this because I have tried to use them. But there is hope: the git maintainers *do* accept docs patches. https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-config.html#_configuration_file Formerly, this said "You will find a description of non-core porcelain configuration variables in the respective porcelain documentation in the appropriate manual page.". Did you know that that means it's acceptable for a third-party git hook to make use of 'git config' to allow end users to configure it? Neither did I, till I asked on the mailing list. However, there are enough git front-ends and tutorials that mean you can generally ignore the man pages until you need something more complicated. Basically, consider the git man pages at the same time you'd consider enabling a Mercurial extension. That's how it seems to be.
