I guess one question now is how to deal with the proprietary doc & ppt binary formats. My first thought was another git repository at git://oss/xfs/cmds/xfsdocs.git which would also include the web site html content. But doc and ppt binary files apparently always result in git merge conflicts (can't be patched) ... thoughts? Perhaps convert the content to wiki or maybe html and manage changes that way?
