There's an FAQ section on the wiki: https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitFaq though I am not sure this is frequently asked. The Git Community Book seems pretty inactive these days. The last work on it is about 2 years old: https://github.com/schacon/gitbook These days Pro Git is freely available and seems much more active: https://github.com/progit/progit I know Scott is collecting random advanced topics like this for an eventual second edition.
