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

[Adrian McCarthy via llvm-commits]

Like many folks, I use git-svn, and I had git's core.autocrlf config set to
true, which worked fine when working on LLDB (which I've been doing for
about a year).  The first time I tried to run Clang tests, however, I got
about 30 failures because of the CR+LFs.

My opinion is that the tests are too fragile if they can't handle platform
native line separators, but until we fix that, the note seems useful.

Aid.
