Committing pre-generated documentation is a big no-no, at least for me.
I'm aware that doing so is redundant. BUT it provides anyone who want's to browse boost just to do so directly, without building anything. For example, anyone can just start browsing the repo master branch without doing downloading or building anything. This is huge for new users of boost. The extra space used seems a small price to pay for this benefit.
I would expect new users of Boost to pick a release, which does come with generated HTML documentation, not to randomly clone a repository in an unknown status.
We should not forget prospective libraries under development, being tried out, and under review. (They need to have links to existing libraries too). Paul
