It would be nice for those manpages to have the title of page to be set appropriately, e.g. for http://git-scm.com/docs/git-bisect to have "git-bisect(1)" or "git-bisect(1) Manual Page", or even perhaps "git-bisect(1) Manual Page - Find by binary search the change that introduced a bug" instead of just "Git". > > * We designed a new logo[1] - there are multiple variations available > for download on the site under the most permissive CC license for any > use. IMVHO it is too similar to Bazaar logo: http://bazaar.canonical.com/bzricons/bazaar-logo.png I like the [---] git logo, but I guess it is a bit cryptic.

In my ancient 10-years old web browser (Mozilla 1.17.2, Linux) the new layout is seriously broken (misaligned), and much less readable than the old one (BTW. could you keep the old one, perhaps only the front page, for comparison?). Also the font size is too small. -- Jakub Narebski
