Are hw/dmx/doc/*.txt really supposed to be in git? They are generated
at build time from SGML.

In a perfect world, no. This was done so that platform not having the doc generation tool<BR>
can still be able to read the doc in txt form. A side-effect of having a file both in git and <BR>
generated is that git will refuse to rebase due to a non clean directory following a make.<BR>
<BR>
The doc generation is disabled by default, so this should not happen often. I think the patch you<BR>
have submitted is the best one can do under the circumstances.<BR>
