Thanks Mariatta - that's exactly what I was looking for.

It's depressing how often the problem is not about providing the
information, but about helping people find it. I was *almost* there -
I remember skimming the pages about git, but as I know git itself, I
was assuming it was about git for people who didn't know it, rather
than "how the CPython workflow uses git" and missed that bit. I'll see
if I can think of a way of making it a bit more obvious.
