Is all such information useful for you in the release notes?
In the current documentation, we just tell people to:

git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
cd poky/
git checkout -t origin/honister -b my-honister
git pull (sufficient when a new release update is made)


If everyone uses git now, I believe all these details are unnecessary
and distract readers from the useful content of the release notes.

Any thoughts?
Thanks
Michael.
