Actually the the git man page doesn't list rev-parse as plumbing. :-)

I know you don't like hearing about SVN, but normally the tutorials I
tend to point people to, in addition to the standard official git
tutorial and git's user manual, are these two web pages. First I tell
people to read first part of:
http://utsl.gen.nz/talks/git-svn/intro.html
which covers the git "philosophy" very nicely, up to the point where
it starts talking about the "git svn" command, and then I tell them to
go read:
http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html
There are no git plumbing commands in either of those two web pages,
because most SVN users would run screaming if they were given a
tutorial that talked about git-read-tree or git-commit-tree. :-)
