Eric Sunshine 1c601af25a Documentation/git-tools: retire manually-maintained list
When Git was young, people looking for third-party Git-related tools
came to the Git project itself to find them, so it made sense to
maintain a list of tools here. These days, however, search engines fill
that role much more efficiently, so retire the manually-maintained
list.

The list of front-ends and tools on the Git wiki rates perhaps a distant
second to search engines, and may still have value, so retain a
reference to it.

Git Tools
=========
When Git was young, people looking for third-party Git-related tools came
to the Git project itself to find them, thus a list of such tools was
maintained here. These days, however, search engines fill that role much
more efficiently, so this manually-maintained list has been retired.
