Johannes Schindelin d5a6aafc90 glossary: explain "master" and "origin"
If you are a long time git user/developer, you forget that to a new git
user, these words have not the same meaning as to you.

[jc: with updates from J. Bruce Fields.]

Lukas_Sandström 5f3aa197ac Change 'cache' to 'index' in the docs
This patch makes the documentation refer to the index
as index instead of cache, but some references still
remain. (e.g. git-update-index.txt)

Johannes Schindelin f1671ecbfa [PATCH] Assorted changes to glossary
Based on the discussion on the git list, here are some important changes
to the glossary. (There is no cache, but an index. Use "object name"
rather than "SHA1". Reorder. Clarify.)

Johannes Schindelin da139813a7 [PATCH] Add GIT glossary
[jc: This is the version without asciidoc cross references;
Johannes says that the cross referenced one is generated from
this file using a Perl script, so I am placing this as the
source, and expecting to later receive the script and a Makefile
entry or two to massage this file into the final HTML or
whatever form.]
