Looks good but I think I'll stick to the man pages, they're quite good.

Besides 'man git' giving a high level overview suitable for topic search it also lists these learning resources:
gittutorial(7), gittutorial-2(7), giteveryday(7), gitcvs-migration(7), gitglossary(7), gitcore-tutorial(7), gitcli(7), The Git User’s Manual[1], gitworkflows(7)

And yet another git article where the "switch" and "restore" commands are missing.

The checkout command has multiple responsibilities, which isn't a good thing. So 2 new commands where created. The "switch" command can be used to create and/or switch to a branch, while the "restore" command can be used to restore working tree files.
