My try to start from scratch ended wih: https://tools.wmflabs.org/purodha-testing/core/index.php?title=Haupsigg

I cannot find out how to get skins. (After spending ~4 hours searching)

All links to download something static are not for me&trade; :-) What I need are instructions on how to clone the common skins as a git repository. I was not even able to find where they are. I understand that once I have a git repository of skins, I can link (or even copy) them to the skins directory local to my test installation of MediaWiki and proceed with them.
