GLib installs a few executables that are not needed by applications that use the glib libraries, but are used either by build systems or by user scripts. Debian splits them into libglib2.0-dev-bin and libglib2.0-bin packages. Another example is GStreamer tools (e.g. gst-launch-1.0) that Debian packages separately in gstreamer1.0-tools. It is common enough that Meson documentation should recommend a tag for consistency across projects.
Meson Documentation
Build dependencies
Meson uses itself and hotdoc for generating documentation.
Minimum required version of hotdoc is 0.8.9.
Instructions on how to install hotdoc are here.
Building the documentation
From the Meson repository root dir:
$ cd docs/
$ meson setup built_docs/
$ ninja -C built_docs/
Now you should be able to open the documentation locally
built_docs/Meson documentation-doc/html/index.html
Upload
Meson uses the git-upload hotdoc plugin which basically removes the html pages and replaces with the new content.
You can simply run:
$ ninja -C built_docs/ upload
