I'm not sure it helps your specific (old) request, but the documentation
for the current version, which is textually identical to the man pages,
is available online at

   https://notmuchmail.org/doc/latest/

I'm still a leary of making the source tarball diverge further from the
git repo (or committing generated files), but having a seperate docs
tarball generated as part of the release process seems like it might be
OK.

Hi Chunyang;

I made a note of your feature request at

  http://nmbug.notmuchmail.org/status/

No promises, but maybe somebody will work on it. It might be a bit
easier to supply a seperate tarball of generated docs, I'm not sure.
