Hey there!
I've just pushed some initial work to nvm.man-page to let monotone
auto-generate its own man page. If you compile this, a new hidden
"manpage" command will be available, which dumps the command tree and a
few additional information in (g)roff format, so you can then basically
mtn manpage | groff -man -Tascii - | less
to view the generated page. This is work-in-progress, as I'm fighting
with some of groff's macros still (f.e. the indentation is not always
correct). Also I need to tweak the output of our description methods a
bit, because a couple of unwanted newlines are inserted as well, and I
need a fancy / catchy DESCRIPTION for the program itself (proposals
welcome!) - but basically it works.
I haven't yet touched the build process part for that, so no, the man
page will not be automatically generated / installed when you hit make
install now...
Thomas.
