This is great, I was wondering how badly the changes would mess up my
in-progress patches. However I've read the doc and it isn't entirely clear
to me what I actually need to do. It talks about needing to patch the local
version-control-tools until some bugs are fixed, some of which are and some
aren't currently. Do I just need to run './mach bootstrap' or is there
something more?
