Summary

Ran into some issues building bitcoin-abc on OSX, so I updated the build docs accordingly. I also refactored them slightly to make more sense.

I think you should keep that step.

It's a good idea to advice people to build out of tree.

So I thought about this and I think you're right. My intent was to remove it and direct everyone to CONTRIBUTING.md for details on pulling source, but I realize most people aren't devs. In that light, this step should probably be added to build-unix and build-windows as well. I'll add this line back and tackle that in another diff.

Good point. I'll write this up in another diff so that it covers all of the build-* files. The recommendation should be on all platforms, imo. Opened a ticket so I don't forget: https://reviews.bitcoinabc.org/T129

Added back the lines about cloning the repo from Github
