This is a bit OT here, but I wanted to share how I kept track of the
progress of my LaTeX PhD in number of pages.
https://github.com/novoid/vklatex-page-stats-from-git.sh
Basically it checks out every git commit, compiles the PDF document,
and logs the number of pages of the resulting PDF. This log-file can
be parsed using «grep» and then you can derive histograms and such.
It has nothing to do with Org-mode but probably someone finds it
useful as well.
