The help framework can choose the backend and the format and it wouldn't be too outlandish to do "git help --pdf add" as Philip mentioned already.

In any case, this, together with some patches on unrelated topics that didn't cut today's "What's cooking" are parked on 'pu', so hopefully people will play with it and report how they find it useful.

Thanks, all.
