@rlambertsen A few updates that we should make:

Lets clone the current version of WordPress into a new directory
git clone https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress.git largo

Instead of telling the user to clone from Github, we should encourage them to use wp core download via the WP-CLI. That being said, we'll need to add a section above this with instructions on how to install that CLI.

The WP CLI is really handy when it comes to testing, db searches, and a ton of other things so it'll be good for users to have it installed from the beginning.

We might also want to encourage contributors/provide instructions on how to import the Automattic sample data from this XML file.

…ll; describe how to download the correct branch then create a new one
