I presume that "man -Tpdf git.1" is not what you are looking for, as
that would literally be how you get the manpages in PDF format?

Personally, I honestly am not quite sure why anybody wants to
generate manpages in the PDF format like this patch does, unless
they are planning to print them on paper, in which case the existing
manpages (git.1 and friends) or html pages (git.html and friends)
should be an already available source format.
