any reason we couldn't in principle have a separate git tree on

Is there really a need?
true, i wondered that too.
And a separate tree is more likely to get out of sync.
i figured it would only be built at "new release announce" time.

Problem: I didn't know that replyfilter and docs/contrib/replyfilter
existed.
I'd like a solution where <some-mh-command> -version pointed me at something
that told me that this existed.
yes, i understand (though i didn't really, before).
we could easily enhance mh-chart(7) and/or nmh(7) to describe some of
the doc/contrib contents. alternatively, we should move the important
members of doc/contrib (mainly, replyfilter) somewhere where it
wouldn't be "untraditional" to give it/them a man page. perhaps
replyfilter should move to libexec.
hmm. i see that not everything in libexec has a man page. that seems
worth thinking about as well.
in the same vein, if there's anything in the doc/nmh/README* files
that should be more accessible, we should try and fix that as well.
