Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

If you open GHIQ7JFL.dta in Stata and enter "describe q8*_01" you will get a list of the variables from the sibling histories that were included in this survey. They can be recoded into the mm variables that would be in a standard DHS (you can get those by entering "describe mm*_01" for another survey, such as the Tanzania 2015-16 survey). It's not just a matter of changing the variable names. More recoding than that would be necessary to get mm9 from q819, q820, and q821, for example. After you have done these recodes you can apply the standard GitHub program.
