Hi,

In this section of the wiki [1]

cd libs/geometry
git checkout develop
git branch -vv
git pull

shouldn't the `cd` command read

cd modular-boost/libs/geometry

as presented in typical commands sequence [2]  for a Boost library

At first glance, the section [1] reads like it is an alternative
solution to build
Boost.Geometry develop branch against e.g. Boost installed from
binaries package *without* need to git pull the modular boost base project,
and the only requirement is that b2 is in PATH.
I don't think that is even possible.

Or am I missing anything?
