That's fair, but I think this whole section needs a bit more love than what's 
proposed. You cannot use svn diff for creating patches within a git repo. This 
text only makes sense when we were still doing the transition from svn to git, 
and the bit you're changing is the "oh yeah, or you can use git if you want" 
stuff. Now we need it to read "This is how you do this with git", at which 
point the checkout from git link isn't as useful as pointing out how you send a 
patch (which is the next logical step after forming a patch file).

Would you like to take a stab at updating this section rather than just the 
link?
