Sorry, IMO this is not a helpful idea.
(Does any other project do anything like this?)
Anyone who finds building the info files a chore should simply install
makeinfo 4.13 in /usr/local, and move on with their life, as I did.
There are loads and loads of ways to get prebuilt versions of the Emacs
trunk if you don't have the resources to build it yourself.
Eg http://hydra.nixos.org/build/7323550, "source distribution" link,
updated in theory on every commit.
Please let's not reintroduce complexity that we spent some time
removing, all for the sake of what is clearly a misunderstanding on
rms's part (the .info files have never been in the repo. All that was
there was info/dir.)
