Correction at [[affine connection]]: affine connection is the principal $GL_n(k)$-connection on the frame bundle of the manifold, not the connection on the tangent bundle, though the latter is a special case of the corresponding associated bundle connection. Urs, do you agree with the correction ? (I think that wikipedia, linked there, terminologically agrees).
