I am not sure whether that's a good idea or not. As I come from web
dev background, I know that people get bored if they need to read
a plain-text long article. SEO optimisation also need some beautiful
designing of articles so that people can spend more time with visual
ease.

Of course, git doesn't need any SEO optimisation as it is very much
popular. But readers want some visual satisfaction while reading
Docs. That's why some people complain about GNU sites (git's site is
beautiful by the way).

Obviously, here I am using `people` to refer non git developers who are
curious about git internals.

Thanks :)
