What ever happened to this document?  There was some talk of getting
this integrated into the git tree as Docmentation/tutorial-3.txt.
IMHO it would be really, really good to do this before 1.5.0, since I
think a lot of users would find it really useful.  Some of the text
may need to be moved to other locations, but it might go faster if we
get the base document into the tree first, and then we can submit
patches to move text around to integrate it into the other
documentation files.

I'm certainly willing to help out submitting patches to improve the
documentation, and I think this would be a big step towards helping
new users to git become much more quickly proficient.
