2. They don't want to look at the latex source but the PDFs built from
it, which they're going to annotate with their comments. So I need an
easy way for them to get the PDF of each commit from gitweb without
having to checkout the repo and build it themselves. Normally I
wouldn't commit the PDF files into the repo because they're compiled
files not source files, but it seems that just building a PDF and
committing it along with each commit to trunk would be by far the
easiest way to achieve this. But will git store the PDFs efficiently, or
will the repo start to get really big?

If they only care about the pdf anyway, why not have a separate branch
to which you commit the pdf's instead?
