Hi,
this is v2 of my patches for user-manual.txt.
Thanks to Junio, Jonathan, Martin and Philip for your comments!

I think Philips remarks should be part of a separate patch series which then also should address the current differences in layout between user-manual.html and user-manual.pdf.

Changes in v2:

[PATCH 01/13] Call it "Git User Manual" and remove reference to very old Git version -> same as v1 [PATCH 02/13] Use current "detached HEAD" message -> fixed another occurence of "(no branch)" [PATCH 03/13] Use current output for "git repack" -> add location where packfile is created [PATCH 04/13] Use "git merge" instead of "git pull ." -> reverted changes in "Getting updates with git pull" [PATCH 05/13] Fix some typos and improve wording -> better wording [PATCH 06/13] Simplify "How to make a commit" -> better wording [PATCH 07/13] Improve description in "How to merge" -> this patch was dropped [PATCH 08/13] Improve section "Manipulating branches" -> add missing case for "current" [PATCH 09/13] Improve section "Merge multiple trees" -> better wording [PATCH 10/13] Remove unnecessary historical note from "Object storage format" -> same as in v1 [PATCH 11/13] Remove obscure reference from "Examples" -> this patch was dropped [PATCH 12/13] Remove irrelevant reference from "Tying it all together" -> same as in v1 [PATCH 13/13] "git prune" is safe now -> weakend warning for "git prune"
