Yes, that should be corrected.\n\n> Should this link just be removed, or replaced with\n> http://git-scm.com/docs (which lists a subset of the pages) or perhaps\n> http://git-scm.com/docs/git?  I will be happy to write the patch.\n\nThe former URL adds GitHub's own Value-Add like pretty icons and\ncategorization, which may be more appropriate than the latter URL.\nBoth are a bit more than just \"formatted and hyperlinked version\" so\nthe phrasing may want to be also changed.\n\n\tAn online documentation based on a recent version of Git can\n\tbe viewed at ...\n\nperhaps?\n\nThanks.\n"}]}
