It's not just about extra space. Source control is for _source_ files, not generated stuff. I don't want generated files to appear in the commit history of a code branch (but another branch like gh-pages is fine).
By way of example, this is the kind of noise committing generated documentation can yield: https://github.com/boostorg/hana/commit/e471106dc850ad72f7abaf442b35
Just to make it clear; this is on the `gh-pages` branch of Hana, which is automatically updated by the CI script. I think Agustin's goal was to show how messy these commits can be, and why they should most likely not be mixed with usual code commits. Agustin, please correct me if I'm wrong here. Louis
