Hello,

I noticed this in 1.7.7.3, but just rebuilt 1.7.9.6 from source on OS X Lion and am still seeing it. These are the links at the end of `man git`:

Those URLs are sadly not useful. :-( FYI, here’s the script I use to build Git:

  https://github.com/theory/my-cap/blob/master/bin/git.sh

Note that the man pages are installed with these two lines:

    curl -O http://git-core.googlecode.com/files/git-manpages-$VERSION.tar.gz
    sudo tar xzv -C /usr/local/share/man -f git-manpages-$VERSION.tar.gz

Is there a bug reporting system I should report this to?

Thanks,

David
