Definitely, I agree.  So that argues for locating the most import stuff
as close to start of the document as possible.  But obviously there's
lot of important stuff and you can't do that with everything, so you
also have to rely on keeping things organized so people can more easily
skip to the middle.
Hm, but, come to think of it, I agree with you that the "how to commit
and push" really should come earlier, since that's the stuff most people
need to know; currently the order is roughly:

	importing a cvs archive
	creating a shared repository
	committing to a shared repository

We should start out with the assumption that a shared repo is already
set up and make it:

	committing to a shared repository
	creating a shared repository
	importing a cvs archive

which puts it in stuff-most-people-need-to-know to
stuff-less-people-need-to-know order.  Maybe the current introduction
should even be postponed to later.

And some day we should move that whole final CVS annotate section
elsewhere.
