To be fair, manpages were intended for tools that followed the Unix philosophy ("small programs that do one thing well, and can be composed together easily"). git does not follow this philosophy. If it did, we'd have tools named checkout, clone, push, etc. rather than one git binary that does all of them (with highly irregular and non-orthogonal syntax!)
