I don't.  It's not that I can or cannot take a pull request.  I just
do not want to queue anything that is not reviwed on list.

I however could queue this (typed to mimic what I saw in your
message), but you'd need to say what you see here is OK (and
preferably, you applied this version and it tested fine); I may have
made a typo or two, and I would really prefer extra set of eyes.

Also we need your sign-off, of course.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] install-doc-quick: allow specifying what ref to install

We allow the builders, who want to install the preformatted manpages
and html documents, to specify where in their filesystem these two
repositories are stored.  Let them also specify which ref (or even a
revision) to grab the preformatted material from.
