Not books/ or > articles/ though. Totally agreed. Branching is good for man pages, but for articles/books it looks strange (better to use paragraphs about different OS versions). And what to do with man pages? What about: 1) Create subtree exclusively for man pages (partially already there - share/man), a-la doc/ tree (i.e. with different languages in mind). 2) Move all man pages from utilities sources to this directory and track them here. I think it can help to simplify tracking man pages for translation teams.
