Thanks; I just realized that nothing in Documentation/ hierarchy mentions these; they are only mentioned in "A Note from the Maintainer" I send out every once in a while (kept in MaintNotes of 'todo' branch):

    * Other people's trees, trusted lieutenants and credits.

    Documentation/SubmittingPatches outlines to whom your proposed changes
    should be sent.  As described in contrib/README, I would delegate fixes
    and enhancements in contrib/ area to the primary contributors of them.

    Although the following are included in git.git repository, they have their
    own authoritative repository and maintainers:

     - git-gui/ comes from git-gui project, maintained by Pat Thoyts:

            git://repo.or.cz/git-gui.git

     - gitk-git/ comes from Paul Mackerras's gitk project:

            git://ozlabs.org/~paulus/gitk

     - po/ comes from the localization coordinator, Jiang Xin:

            https://github.com/git-l10n/git-po/

Perhaps the update should mention po/ as well?
