Alright. Changed to 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/xfstests-bld.git/tree/Documentation/kvm-quickstart.md

And changed the kvm-xfstests docs link to 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/xfstests-bld.git/tree/Documentation/kvm-quickstart.md

Well, I wasn't sure what to put here either :D I would defer to you guys in 
this matter.

I'm actually not really sure we need the "Source:" field. I think maybe having 
just the "Docs" (HOWTO) field would less confusing. I.e. just go read the 
docs, they should tell you what and how to get.

I mean you got the sources, and then what? Look for the docs there yourself?

What do you think?

Sure, just give me a shout when you're ready and I'll add it :D
