That would probably be the best option, other options are

unfortunately, it didn't work.)

There is some configuration magic about what is a section. Try

  perl -pi -e 's/^SECTION.*/$& git/' /etc/manpath.config

That seems to convince my man to look in .../mangit, but I'm having
trouble actually getting it to find a page and I don't have time to
investigate further now.
