The first time I set this up on a new machine it pointed me to the repo,
but didn't say which files I needed. So it took some trial and error
before I got it working. We should be explicit in what we use.

This error is getting quite long, should we instead have a link to some markdown file in the repo or a GH wiki page that has more instructions?
