FWIW I've reviewed these changes, though I'm not a Reviewer on the Guide project.

I see that most of the contents is preserved, though some placeholder sections that were never written (e.g., on TCK
testing) have been removed, which makes sense, as they probably are irrelevant at this point. I also note that a LOT of
the material covers Mercurial, which of course will need to be rewritten for the git/GitHub/Skara workflow.
