That is a nice writeup. One of the interesting things for me was to see which topics you decided to cover and which to omit. For instance, I noted `clone --reference --recurse-submodules` as a potential topic of interest, but I am afraid to point anybody to the `--reference` option due to its hidden dangers.

I'm also curious how you came up with 19,290 for a birthday paradox on a 7-hex hash. I think it's 16,384, but probability can sometimes be tricky. :)
