We could backport the changes and actually do an include::core-tutorial.txt[] in the user-manual.txt. Santi ``` ## J.

Actually, there's at least three documents with some overlap: - the core tutorial - tutorial-2.txt - the "DISCUSSION" section of git.7, also chapter 8 of the user manual, also previously the README. I'd eventually like to get those down to just one or two. Updating the core-tutorial and figuring out how to work it into the manual might be a good first step. --b. ```
