Some suggestions,
* s/Documenation/Documentation
* ~70 cols is the practical followed line wrapping, so you can follow that
for best readability.
* First describe the current problem statement which describes the
current state in the present tense like,
   In MyFirstContribution.adoc, the link to the repo_config()
   documentation is invalid because the documentation related was moved
   to a different file.
* Then you instruct somebody to make changes to the code to make it better like,
   Replace the path for the repo_config() documentation from
   'Documenation/technical/api-config' to 'config.h'.
* Then you can state your additional explainations, references and/or
advantages, whatever seems relevant for the change you just stated.

Best, Shreyansh
