We have a "git quick start" here:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html#git-quick-start
and there's one on the wiki:
http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/QuickStart
I think the one in the manual tries to follow the organization of the
manual more closely.
I haven't tried to compare those two recently, or to compare yours to
either of them. If you could compare and suggest any improvements,
that'd be helpful.
I like your name better ("quick reference" as opposed to "quick start").
Having it as a man page may be a good idea too. I'd like to keep a copy
in the manual as well, though, so we'd have to include from some common
file.
