Btw, I just checked that git-tar-tree is documented and has a man-page. It 
does. However, that man-page attributes authorship to me, which is wrong. 
git-tar-tree was written by Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx>.

Don't know how many other man-pages say I wrote something just because 
people copied another man-page around. Worth fixing, though.
