[llvm-commits] [PATCH, Gold build instructions]: More efficient cvs checkout

The cvs checkout instructions to fetch gold sources (docs/GoldPlugin.html)
make you checkout all the sourceware code while checking out the binutils
cvs module (containg gold + build infrastructure) is more than enough.
It is a difference of about 300 MByte.

Patch for documentation attached.  Please commit after review.

John.
