+Updating the manpages is a semi-manual process:
+(all paths below relative to top of git tree):
+
+1) make changes to the .rst files in doc/man.
+2) if adding or removing pages, update man/CMakeLists.txt
+3) use admin/build-doc to build the doc tree into build-doc/output
+4) copy changed manpage files from build-doc/output/man to man/
+5) commit both doc/man .rst changes and man/ changes
