I noticed that near the top of the git(1) man page, there is a link to

not been updated since August 2015
Thanks for noticing.  Yes, that should be corrected.
Should this link just be removed, or replaced with
http://git-scm.com/docs (which lists a subset of the pages) or perhaps
http://git-scm.com/docs/git?  I will be happy to write the patch.
The former URL adds GitHub's own Value-Add like pretty icons and
categorization, which may be more appropriate than the latter URL.
Both are a bit more than just "formatted and hyperlinked version" so
the phrasing may want to be also changed.

	An online documentation based on a recent version of Git can
	be viewed at ...

perhaps?

Thanks.
