Yeah "man git-commandname" and "git help commandname" should work.
 CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt.
The "cvs-migration.txt" was also renamed "gitcvs-migration.txt". It should 
be available with "man gitcvs-migration" and "git help cvs-migration".

Thanks,
Christian.

This however is a valid point.

I would also suggest that the patch have a different name, as I  
expected it to be renaming tutorial.txt and I was going to ask why.   
Perhaps "README: correct for renamed files"?

Well, this is debatable, because we first ask the user to read the INSTALL 
file, and a tutorial for git may not be very usefull if you don't have it 
installed to try out the tutorial commands.

Christian.
