Whereas detailed explanations will make beginners start more
comfortably, they will be also a maintenance burden, so a good balance
is not obvious to find.  Mark, may I suggest you to try to write
explanations as if you'd have to maintain them as Git evolves during the
next 10 years? (although you actually won't have to :-)

I have an objection about putting Git stuff in an appendix: if some text
is too long to be in the main document, it would better be used to
improve some generic (and already good enough, with a reasonable
expected life time) Git documentation.  I know this is much more work,
but would have a better payoff and this would more likely free you (and
us) from any maintenance burden other than maintaining an URL.

Best,
John
