Section "[3] Get the code for Platform UI"

I think section "[3] Get the code for Platform UI" needs some love. The issues that i see are

  • Directly below the header are the instructions how to get the projects using the platformUiProjectsGerrit.psf file. How I understand it, this step should only be done when using gerrit, so it should be in the sub-chapter 3.1. Otherwise it would make no sense in 3.2 there is another psf (platformUiProjects.psf).
  • Missing in [3.1] is how to set up gerrit in egit. Options like "Push to gerrit..." are not present automatically. First you need to select the origin of the repository and configure gerrit.
  • Much of the information in 3.1 is more related to actual contributing, but we are still in the setup chapter. The process for contributing comes later.
