Two among the three warnings raised by "make git.info" are related to the fact
that the preface has not id in user-manual.txt.
user-manual.texi:15: warning: empty menu entry name in `* : idm4.'
user-manual.texi:141: warning: @unnumbered missing argument
This causes asciidoc creating an empty preface and an empty title tag in
user-manual.xml which turns to be an empty node in user-manual.texi and
git.info. Consequently, one can notice in user-manual.texi and git.info
a node named "idm4" in the menu and the navigation bar. In emacs, the
first entry of the menu in the git info page is even displayed as empty.
This fix will name "Introduction" the preface and assign it an id.
The result can be seen in the files: user-manual.{xml, texi, html, pdf}
and git.info.
For future reference, the diff between old and new user-manual.xml,
user-manual.texi, git.info, user-manual.html (converted through
html2markdown) and user-manual.pdf (converted through pdftotext) are
attached.
