It's great that you've translated it, I'm not sure where this should be linked from in Git's documentation, if at all.
I'm currently working no getting i18n support for Git's core commands up and running, after that I wanted to try getting support for http://po4a.alioth.debian.org/ going.
That we way could translate any of our documentation and ship it as part of Git itself, so you could have a Russian gittutorial manpage installed along with Git.
