When did this file get added?  I think it's a really, really bad idea to have
this file around when we have separately-managed documentation.

This file was added here -> https://codereview.chromium.org/146943002/

 
-1. First, create a directory to hold Skia:
-    * `mkdir skia`
+1. First, checkout Skia:
+    * `git clone https://skia.googlesource.com/skia.git`
     * `cd skia`
-2. Then checkout Skia:
-    * `gclient config --name . https://skia.googlesource.com/skia.git`
-    * `gclient sync`
+2. Then download the dependencies.  You only need to rerun this when
+   the dependencies change.
+    * `python tools/grab_deps.py`
+2. Add `ninja` to your path:
+    *  `export PATH="${PATH}:$(pwd)/third_party/externals/depot_tools"`

I don't think we need to say that. At least I think people checkout depot_tools
earlier and from https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools/
and put it wherever they want.

 3. Create our Ninja build files from our Gyp meta-build files.  You only need
    to rerun this when you sync or change a `.gyp` file.
     * `GYP_GENERATORS=ninja ./gyp_skia`
