From d79073922fcb8c8a0bd57112817a2154f1ed05c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: tighten dependency for git.{html,txt}

Every time _any_ documentation page changed, cmds-*.txt files
were regenerated, which caused git.{html,txt} to be remade.  Try
not to update cmds-*.txt files if their new contents match the
old ones.
