As to the general direction I am in full agreement with what you and Jonathan discussed in the review of your series, namely:

 - We prefer dashless these days;
 - Reference to a concrete command line is <code>git clone</code> which is
   typeset differently from general descriptions of what <emphasis>git
   clone</emphasis> command does.

I'd like to proceed with this series by (1) pulling from you and queuing the result in 'next', (2) asking other people (including Jonathan) to proofread and send necessary updates to the list, (3) asking you to check and queue these updates from others yourself and tell me to pull again to my 'next', and (4) merging the result to 'master' when done.

Does it sound workable?  Am I placing too much undue burden on you?
