Hi, looks like the git-scm pages deliver outdated Git docs (v2.13.1): https://git-scm.com/docs/git Is this intentional? If not, who should be contacted? Cheers, Lars

The docs are up-to-date (and a cron job keeps them updated when there are new releases). I think the issue is just one of presentation. That manpage in particular hasn't been updated since v2.13.1, so that's the highest field in the version dropdown. If you switch to: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-status for instance, you'll see "v2.14.0 | git-status last updated in 2.14.0". It's actually sucked in v2.14.1 (you can tell because that's what's mentioned as the latest version on the front page), but there were no manpages updated between v2.14.0 and v2.14.1. So I think all is working as intended, though there may be room for improvement in the text used at the top. I'm happy to take patches here, or you can open an issue or PR at https://github.com/git/git-scm.com -Peff

Thanks for the explanation! - Lars
