Good catch. Originally there was "Git Community Book" on Git Homepage, and "Pro Git" had its own homepage; now they are folded together.

As you can see this year survey is [almost] bereft of essay free-form questions. It is because of difficulties and time needed to analyze such responses. So I don't think such question will be included this year. I think it is better discussion for git mailing list or something... -- Jakub Narebski
