[PATCH] D19285: Tweaks to get_started.html, especially for Windows developers

[Adrian McCarthy via llvm-commits]

amccarth created this revision.
amccarth added a reviewer: yaron.keren.
amccarth added a subscriber: llvm-commits.

1.  Add note about preserving FL line endings on Windows.  Failure to do so causes about 30 tests to fail.
2.  `Check out` is two words when used as a verb.
