Yup, I agree with you a 100%.

I was first focussing on getting everything set up and then get some
early signals as to whether this is a direction that we can go into in
the first place, and because of that I didn't yet provide any docs. But
based on your feedback I guess I should focus on exactly that as my next
step. So I'll include docs in the next reroll that demonstrate everyday
workflows in Git and how to do these with Meson.

Thanks!
