FYI, I just submitted a patch to add a contributors page to git-scm.com
that looks similar to the old one. That patch being the sum total of my
ruby and rails experience, I'd expect some re-working to be necessary
before it is merged:

  https://github.com/github/gitscm-next/pull/216

So it probably makes sense to go ahead and drop the link from the
manpage for now, and we can re-add it if the contributors page gets
merged (in my patch, it has a different path, so we would need to tweak
the URL eventually anyway).
