Correct. That is direct rendition of what we ship. git-scm.com has some fruff around it (grouping and other meaningful usability improvements besides coloring and fonts), but I do not know how up-to-date the contents or the grouping is and how they are kept synchronized to the originals at git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html.
