Fixed both of these, thanks!

I don't know how to fix that without creating an additional maintenance point. Since README.git already contains that link, I would leave off the web site business and just make the change of the dynamically chosen file name.

I ended up pushing this with the URL in place as there IMO was consensus in the
thread for including it. We could if we want to update it to point to v15 docs
once we branch off, but anything more than that is probably in the diminishing
returns territory in terms of effort involved.
