Unfortunately I don't have a working asciidoc etc toolchain either (though I will take a look at getting it working on my central git box which is Linux based). As I'm not an emacs or Info user I probably wouldn't know if they were building correctly anyway.

However, if anyone can do the above, I'll be happy to help them get set up to push an 'info' branch to gitbuild.git (http://repo.or.cz/w/git/gitbuild.git).

How often would you want the info pages rebuilt? Just the versions which Junio tags? Or would you only want them built from one branch (e.g. maint)?
