Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

Updated installation documentation from Isaac Sim 5.0 to 5.1 for Newton beta 2 release.

Major changes:

• Updated Isaac Sim version requirement from 5.0 to 5.1 throughout the document
• Removed the "Binary Installation" section entirely, simplifying to pip-only installation
• Added warning to use fresh virtual environment to avoid dependency conflicts
• Updated pip install command to use isaacsim[all,extscache]==5.1.0

The changes align with the Newton beta 2 release mentioned in the PR description and streamline the installation process by focusing solely on pip installation.

Confidence Score: 4/5

• This PR is safe to merge with one minor correction needed
• Score reflects straightforward documentation update with clear improvements. The only issue is a section header inconsistency where line 51 still references version 5.0 instead of 5.1. All other version references were correctly updated.
• The installation.rst file needs one quick fix to update the section header from "5.0" to "5.1"

1. docs/source/experimental-features/newton-physics-integration/installation.rst, line 51 (link)

   syntax: Section header still says "5.0" but should say "5.1" to match the version being installed
