This highlights a problem with the current web pages. The documentation
at http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/ is for the current
master (which is presumably where this user got the tutorial mentioning
'git merge' as porcelain). But I suspect a lot of people will be using
the latest released version (either from the tarball, or a binary
package). We could:
  1. Only re-publish the web doc at time of release
  2. Build the published web doc from 'maint' instead of master
  3. Publish (and clearly mark) both last-released and master doc
  4. Disregard it; this particular release made a lot of UI changes, but
     we're not likely run into this for most releases.
