I think this should have backticks around nodejs/node, to follow the rest of the doc.

Can you mention the test-v8 target in the Makefile (and possibly make-v8.sh)? It takes quite long to actually run locally but mentioning it here at least leaves a pointer about how to update the CI.

I can. Do you have a suggestion for the wording?

Maybe Note: The CI uses the `test-v8` target in the `Makefile`, which uses `tools/make-v8.sh` to reconstruct a git tree in the `deps/v8` directory to run V8 tests.

Don't think this is worth backporting, but if anyone disagrees feel free to raise backports for v6.x and v8.x.
