I would not agree it to be a part of git-add man page, but rather it should be a part of doc that explains basic git commands and their flows. I feel that we need a place where git flows are explained. IMO, gitwiki is a great place for it. I would like to volunteer to add these pages to Wiki.Why not? Shouldn't the man pages be a superset of those other docs? Does it seem clear to you from reading "git help reset" that it is related to "git add" and that one can undo a git add with git reset?
Actually when I learned git I never learned one command after another, rather I learned the flows and the most the scenarios mentioned in this thread mostly got covered then in either first or second flow I was trying. What learning flows enabled was, for me to experience how commands are inter-related. It basically depends how a person learns the tool. My way of learning a tool is to learn flows. I have also taken the same steps to teach some of my friends and colleagues git and all seem to understand the stuffs :). But hey, that is my opinion :) only. Best regards, Imran
