Note that more people than the release manager need this information. I wrote this patch because I needed to know how snapshot tarballs were made in order to debug a problem with testsuite/gdb.c++ files inside the current snapshots. Testing: I followed the instructions on a fresh tree and I got some nice looking tarballs. OK to apply?
