I think this is a coincidence and not related to the git
conversion. But either the above change or some change in the script
that generates the onlinedocs.

Before (Jan 11) https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs
contained both a gdb/ directory with separate .html files per node and
a gdb.html file with everything on one page.

After (Jan 12) https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs has a
directory gdb.html/ with one file per node and the file with
everything on one page is now called gdb

This is only for the current onlinedocs the (most recent branch)
https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/ and (last release)
https://sourceware.org/gdb/download/onlinedocs/ still have a directory
called gdb and a file called gdb.html

Cheers,

Mark
