Hi there

just so you know: the html page here http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html

has all its examples -- the ones in a <div class=literallayout> -- with wierd character inserted e.g. in the Preface http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html#id264704 What I see as the first example displays like this $�man�git-clone

the same symptom appears in chapter titles http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html#repositories-and-branches displays

    Chapter�1.�Repositories and Branches

=== I am using the latest firefox 2.0.0.5 on macos 10.4.10 US version

-- thanks
