Hidden manuals: gittutorial, giteveryday, gitglossary, gitworkflow

Today I discovered a set of wonderful and slightly hidden manuals on git:

  man gittutorial
  man giteveryday
  man gitglossary
  man gitworkflow
Actually they aren’t all that well hidden if an observant user just started poking at git:

  $ man git
  
  GIT(1)
  
  ...
  
  
  DESCRIPTION
         Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
  
         See gittutorial(7) to get started, then see giteveryday(7) for a useful minimum set of commands. The Git User’s Manual[1] has a more in-depth introduction.
  
  ...
