    This updates the documentation to modernize some of the steps, such as
    using pip instead of easy_install, and using RBTools and devserver.py
    correctly.
    
    The biggest update has to do with the list of dependencies, which no
    longer includes the Python modules that will be automatically installed
    by prepare-dev.py.
    
    There are also a variety of other small updates for URLs and branch
    names.

    Built the docs and looked through them.

    I'm a little confused, but the original text doesn't even match the published docs on the website (https://www.reviewboard.org/docs/codebase/dev/getting-started/#rbtools). Actually, this …

      I'm a little confused, but the original text doesn't even match the published docs on the website (https://www.reviewboard.org/docs/codebase/dev/getting-started/#rbtools).  Actually, this looks like it is a master vs. release-2.0.x issue?  In any event, "both" in the updated text seems unnecessary.

      FWIW, this link now redirects to http://cheat.errtheblog.com/s/git.  Perhaps https://training.github.com/kit/downloads/github-git-cheat-sheet.pdf is more representative of the original content?
