How about the fetch and push man pages:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-fetch.ht...

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-push.htm...

Even the summaries are terrible:

git-fetch - Download objects and refs from another repository

git-push - Update remote refs along with associated objects

Now, I haven't been a git newbie in ages, but I imagine a beginner asking "what is this objects and refs about?" How about:

git-fetch - Download changes from another repository

git-push - Upload changes to another repository

(Warning: there will be lots of back-and-forth on the mailing list about doc changes. Old timers tend to want the man pages to be technically correct, even though I think this makes the documentation harder on beginners. I suppose the argument is that the man pages are reference type documentation, but I still think there's lots of room for improvement.)
