A followup on the post I did a few days ago about Git documentation.
I forked Petr's git.or.cz site and put up a version that I think is a
bit more accessible and newbie-friendly at git-scm.com.  I had meant
to discuss this with Petr before posting it to you all, but I
published a blog post that got a bit more attention than I expected,
and I didn't want you all to think I didn't care about your opinion,
as some have already accused me of.
I had a looksie at the site and I think the documentation section [0]
could use some TLC. It might be because it's getting late, but there's
not really any 'eye catchers', no "CLICK ME!" link for someone
browsing around looking for Documentation. In order to find what you
want you have to read -a lot- of the page, which I think is a sign
that the page would do well with some TLC ;).
Now I'll admit that the git.or.cz version [1] is a lot worse, but with
this being an attempt to make it a lot more newbie friendly...

[0] http://git-scm.com/documentation
[1] http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitDocumentation

PS: I think you forgot the </shameless plug> when you did put up your
own e-book in the books section but did not put "Git Magic" there ;).
