+@subheading Introduction
+Snippets used in the documentation are in
+@file{$LILYPOND_GIT/Documentation/snippets}. This directory
+contains a complete set of the snippets in the LSR which are
+tagged with 'docs'. The exact method for getting them there is
+described below, but in essence they come from downloading a
+tarball from the LSR and importing into the directory using the
+@code{makelsr} script.
+
+Any snippets which are too bleeding edge to run on the LSR (which
+uses a stable development version) are put into
+@file{$LILYPOND_GIT/Documentation/snippets/new}. Once the LSR has
+been upgraded so that these will run, then they are transferred to
+the LSR and deleted from @file{/snippets/new}.
+
+'Git' is the shorthand name for the Git repository that contains
+all the development code. For further information on setting this
+up see, @ref{Working with source code}. An alternative to setting
+up a Git repository for people wanting to do LSR work is to get
+the source code from
+@uref{http://lilypond.org/website/development.html}.
