The last paragraph in the Notes of chapter 1 states:
The path induction principle for identity types was formulated by Martin-Löf [ML98]
However it seems that the paper [ML98] does not mention identity types.
According to Evan Cavallo, the identity type first appears in Martin-Löf's similarly-named 1975 paper, section 1.7.

This is the Coq repository, not the book repository. See HoTT/book#1129.

Maybe it would be a good idea to rename the repo to say coq-hott? Given that is how we distribute the opam package and it is much clearer than HoTT/HoTT. GitHub let's you do this and also redirect links to HoTT/HoTT to the new name.

AFAIK nobody would have to do anything in their local repos.
