That's very good.  Thank you very much for giving home to git manpages
online.

It would be nice for those manpages to have the title of page to be
set appropriately, e.g. for http://git-scm.com/docs/git-bisect to have
"git-bisect(1)" or "git-bisect(1) Manual Page", or even perhaps
"git-bisect(1) Manual Page - Find by binary search the change that
introduced a bug" instead of just "Git".

IMVHO it is too similar to Bazaar logo:

I like the [---] git logo, but I guess it is a bit cryptic.

In my ancient 10-years old web browser (Mozilla 1.17.2, Linux) the new
layout is seriously broken (misaligned), and much less readable than
the old one (BTW. could you keep the old one, perhaps only the front
page, for comparison?).  Also the font size is too small.
