I noticed that near the top of the git(1) man page, there is a link to
http://git-htmldocs.googlecode.com/git/git.html, which apparently has
not been updated since August 2015
(https://code.google.com/archive/p/git-htmldocs/source/default/commits).
Should this link just be removed, or replaced with
http://git-scm.com/docs (which lists a subset of the pages) or perhaps
http://git-scm.com/docs/git? I will be happy to write the patch.
Matt

Thanks for noticing. Yes, that should be corrected.

The former URL adds GitHub's own Value-Add like pretty icons and
categorization, which may be more appropriate than the latter URL.
Both are a bit more than just "formatted and hyperlinked version" so
the phrasing may want to be also changed.
An online documentation based on a recent version of Git can
be viewed at ...
perhaps?
Thanks.
