A comment on I broke Git :(.

Perhaps instead of "how to correctly do what I did wrong", you should do "how to fix what I just did wrong". Knowing how to properly pull files is worthless when the entire setup is borked without the user knowing what they did wrong.

I do think that the correct instructions should be there, but it should also include how to fix it in the event that you didn't.
