(Tom Tromey is alerted and on it; the git may have to Hans-Peter> be re-created or something like that.) I had put texinfo into the list of directories to remove before conversion. This caused the problem. I think there are two choices to fix it. One, fix my script and redo the conversion. This is easy, though (1) it takes quite a lot of time, (2) any git commits since the first conversion will have to be re-applied (there aren't many -- I can handle it), and (3) any work anybody else has done on a clone of the repository will have to be redone. The argument for this choice is mainly that it is more true to the history. E.g., with the current git repository you can't faithfully re-create old releases. Two, pretend the problem away and check in the file now. I don't really have a preference. However it would be good to decide soon. So, please send email today. thanks, Tom
