doing a source install of git v1.7.12.1, on the `make all doc` step, I get:

user-manual.xml:3739: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: emphasis line 3739 and literal
  char <emphasis role="strong"></literal>, but is actually expected to be a poin
                                         ^

I will post the details in a distinct message, perhaps even with another patch if I can sort this out.
