Well, this is the target that it is nice to have.  The implementation
needs to be improved, as you noticed.

Thanks for sanity check!

Instead of duplicating Documentation/Makefile knowledge in gitweb/Makefile,
let's just proxy to Documentation/Makefile like for 'test' target:

  +doc:
  +	$(MAKE) -C ../Documentation gitweb
  +

In Documentation/Makefile the new 'gitweb' target could look just like
this:

  +GITWEB_DOC = $(filter gitweb.%,$(DOC_HTML) $(DOC_MAN1) $(DOC_MAN5) $(DOC_MAN7)) 
  +gitweb: $(GITWEB_DOC)

And it would be much shorter, too.
