This patch series tries to improve different areas of the user-manual, including style and git configuration.

For a quick preview check: http://people.freedesktop.org/~felipec/git/user-manual.html

Some changes are non-controversial, like s/git-foo/git foo/ while the font style changes might be.

There's one huge patch for quoting improvements, which requires the css style patch in order to look good.

Also, a new section 'Getting started' was added, which currently only deals with git configuration. This allows other areas of the manual to be less verbose on 'git config'.

Felipe Contreras (7):
  user-manual: remove some git-foo usage
  docbook: improve css style
  user-manual: general quoting improvements
  user-manual: use 'fast-forward' instead of 'fast forward'
  user-manual: use SHA-1 instead of SHA1 or sha1
  user-manual: add global config section
  user-manual: simplify the user configuration
