Ok, a few questions after reading the documentation.

Why doesn't Help:Tool_Labs acknowledge existence of any of the other
help pages? I went from the labs-l email on nodejs -> the
Help:Tool_Labs/Web#... page -> Then realized other help was in the Tool
Labs category.  ;)

I finally sound the part of documentation that talks about actual
databases for tools projects rather than access to replicated databases.
Is the local tools-db mysql or mariasql? Sequelize/Node.JS uses a
different connector for each.

Where's the documentation on the different folders/mountpoints? I need
to decide where to dump any cloned git repos. It's semi-ephemeral data
downloaded by the tool.
