Documentation/doc-diff

#!/bin/sh
#
# Build two documentation trees and diff the resulting formatted output.
# Compared to a source diff, this can reveal mistakes in the formatting.
# For example:
#
#   ./doc-diff origin/master HEAD
#
# would show the differences introduced by a branch based on master.
