To that end, I deployed this branch to GitHub Pages so that anyone
interested (hopefully many!) can have a look at
https://git.github.io/git-scm.com/ and compare to the existing
https://git-scm.com/.
Thanks for hosting it to easily check things!

I gave a quick try at the search and it seems to be behaving a bit strangely.

For instance, I searched for 'commit' and 'log'. I was hoping to see the
corresponding reference page show up in the results but they don't seem to
show up. At least they don't show up in the first few results. They show up in
the first few results in the existing site.

Here are some screenshots:

Existing site: https://ibb.co/pZHx9TM

New site:

This not always the case, though. Some terms like 'checkout' seem to bring the
relevant results properly in the top results.
This was quite the adventure to figure out. I worked with the maintainer
of Pagefind in the meantime, to add better controls regarding how much
impact various dimensions should have on the search results. And I am
happy to report that the fruit of these labors is now available to all, in
the form of Pagefind v1.1.1.

I have integrated this into https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/pull/1804.

Ciao,
Johannes
