For some reason, that got over the hum= p.

Got all the way t= hrough to building the Documentation, at which stage I now need to get = asciidoc and python. I don't really like bloating my minimal server sys= tems with python, but it seems I'm finally stuck, since I have faculty = who really want to use git. >=20 > Thanks for the clue. There is a quick-install-doc make target. It extracts prebuilt documentation from a branch named origin/man in your repository. Junio keeps this up-to-date with the Documentation on master. You can use it instead of trying to build the documentation from scratch. -Brandon
