It's not about documentation but ease to use. I agree and sympathise
very much with the effort of making core Git more easy to use and
obsoleting Cogito, but until it gets there we should have what's nicest
to the users.

If someone writes a crash course in pure Git covering the same grounds
as the current ones (possibly by just extending/retouching the tutorial)
(it does not necessarily need to be a "refugee" crash course, it can
build up from scratch), I can add it on the web. If it becomes as easy
to use and with as mild learning curve as Cogito, it means Cogito got
mostly obsolete and I'll happily remove the Cogito crash courses from
the web.

If you disagree about that fact, can you provide some specific
argumentation?
