Suggestion:

mkdir -p ~/catkin_ws
wstool init ~/catkin_ws/src https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ros-industrial/yak_ros/master/yak_ros/dependencies.rosinstall

If ~/catkin_ws/src already exists this may not work, so depending on what sort of audience you are targetting with this documentation, you could stick with your current set of instructions (but then the wstool init . could also fail).
