I personally think the links are Ok to be left as they are in git-foo form
but if there is a good way to persuade manual viewers to display "git foo"
and still follow "man git-foo", that would be great.

Names of the programs in "git-foo" form in the plain text, unless they are
the server side programs, should be updated to say "git foo"
(cf. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/95436/focus=95443)
