It's not only silly to duplicate instructions that can be found all over the internet that are maintained by the creators of the tools under discussion, but it's a maintenance burden that is unneeded.
Your call as the author, but please reconsider this one. I've found it *hugely* convenient over the years to have these task oriented answers in the FAQ. The problem with the answers all over the internet is that I (or someone new to our source control tool) may not know enough to ask the right question, and hence those answers may as well not exist. Even if these FAQ answers don't always provide everything needed, they usually provide enough information to let me search for the full answers.
