Maybe. But it is a reasonable ask to Emacs users to at least skim
through Emacs manual and be familiar with basic terminology. Otherwise,
we simply cannot communicate things efficiently. IMHO, "Emacs packages"
is a part of basic terminology. But certainly not Git, which has no
relation to Emacs, except to the Emacs packages that work with Git -
specialized packages not aiming for all Emacs users.
