Do you know of a public webpage we can count on to continue to serve
the docs?  I agree that that would be even better.

I think http://git-scm.com/ would be the ideal place. My understanding
is that the re-work of the site is nearing completion. Scott, ETA?

Yes, we are very close to launching a big redesign of git-scm.com.
The manpages will be automatically updated on that site, you can
certainly link to them there.

If you want to preview what it's going to look like and the URL
structure, you can check out the current working version here:

http://git-scm.herokuapp.com/docs/git-fetch

There are a number of known bugs and I want to make it much faster
before I officially launch it and redirect DNS, but you can get an
idea of how it will be structured and what it will look like.  If you
want to start generating docs with static urls for man pages, they can
be of the form: http://git-scm.com/docs/git-command

You can also put a version number after them to permalink them at a
certain version:

http://git-scm.herokuapp.com/docs/git-fetch/1.7.3.2

When it's close to what I think is ready, I'll do a post to this list
looking for feedback and bugs, etc.
