The illustrations look like they were made in MS Word 97.

The first tutorial, "Version Control System (VCS) Requirements:  What every VCS must do" looks more like a rough outline of a first draft than any comprehensive introduction that would make sense to a beginner.

I find the other sections to also be generally incomplete.

Maybe this will get better, but I'm not going to point any newbies there given better options right now (like http://gitimmersion.com/ ).

+1 for gitimmersion.com.

+2 to Edgecase for giving back (rubykoans.com).

Great screencast from Jim Weirich on Git at pragprog here: http://pragprog.com/screencasts/v-jwsceasy/source-control-ma...

I don't know about the screencast as I've never watched it -- but the pragprog text 'Version Control Using Git' is certainly wonderful: http://pragprog.com/titles/tsgit/pragmatic-version-control-u...

I found http://gitready.com really useful when I was starting out with git.
