In fact, I'm tempted to submit a patch that just assigns a chapter
number to everything under Documentation/, slaps a single table of
contents on the front, and calls the result "the git user's manual."
Of course, the moment people started trying to read the thing they'd
complain that it was a mess--some stuff referenced without being
introduced, other stuff introduced too many times. But then over time
maybe that'd force us to mold it into some sort of logical sequence.
