Re: [PATCH 0/3] [doc] Remove gittutorial-2

The idea is that:

1. we delete gittutorial-2 (this series)
2. we delete gittutorial
3. we add a new gittutorial

We could also combine #2 and #3 into a single series.
I don't feel strongly about that and it might (as you mention below)
be better to wait to delete gittutorial until we have a replacement
ready to go.

I'm not planning to replace gittutorial-2 since the material in it
is already covered by gitdatamodel and gitcore-tutorial.
Let me know if you disagree!

We definitely want a tutorial that covers `git init`, `git add`, `git commit`,
etc. Any replacement would definitely cover those topics, but 
I don't see the value of having 2 such tutorials.
Why do you think it would be valuable to keep it around? It seems
like it would cause a lot of confusion to me.
