Yeah, I understand that.  Philosophically this is similar to what we
traditionally keep in contrib/examples/, where it is not really part
of git-the-product but is still shipped to help git developers.

The resulting changes looked reasonably clean and thorough (the
latter is understandable as it is a tool's output ;-), and the input
language quite understandable.  This sounds like a fun process.

Thanks.
