+<p>Github repository is a read-only mirror of the official Apache git
repository
+(https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/libcloud.git). This mirror script runs
+only a couple of times per day which means this mirror can be slightly out of
+date. You are advised to add a separate remote for the official upstream
+repository:</p>
+<p>::bash
+ git remote add upstream
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/libcloud.git</p>
+<p>Github read-only mirror is used only for pull requests and code review.
Once a
+pull request has been reviewed, all the comments have been addresses and it's
+ready to be merged, user who submitted the pull request must close the pull
+request, create a patch and attach it to the original JIRA ticket.</p>
