The manpages are used to support the "git <command> --help".  I don't
see anything wrong with demoting it to a Recommends if, when the
manpages are missing, "git <command> --help" would print a message
indicating that you should ask your sysadmin to install git-man.

Would you be interested in that?

Thanks,
Jonathan
