I am still undecided on whether it is a good idea (in some ways, I like that "gitrevisions" signals to the user that it is not a command; but I also recognize that it is more complex for users, and gitremote-helpers looks silly to me). But here is what the patch looks like, for reference. The first one is a cleanup we might want to take anyway, and the second one is the meat.

  [1/2]: Documentation/Makefile: clean up MAN*_TXT lists
  [2/2]: docs: convert "concept" manpages to git-*
