Yes, I'm trying to make sure all four of

  {asciidoc, asciidoctor} x {man, html}

agree and look good. For the manpages, I use our doc-diff script. (In this case, I wanted an empty asciidoc diff (HEAD^ HEAD) and a good Asciidoctor diff (s/+//-ish).) For the html, it's a bit more manual labour, switching between files in a browser and convincing myself everything is good, visually.

Luckily, once both tools agree on the manpages and they look good, in my experience, the html is probably also ok.
