"man gittutorial" and "git help tutorial" should work to display the
tutorial, so perhaps we should advise to use them instead of the  
source,
since we are advising to use "man git-commandname" below to get help  
on
each command.
This is the README file for the project, so it should advise looking  
at the Documentation directory as neither the man pages or git command  
are likely installed at this point.

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".
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"?
