+Obtaining Commit Access to the GitHub Repository
+------------------------------------------------
+We are currently in the process of migrating the project's source code from SVN
+to a git repository on GitHub. We are maintaining a file in SVN to map
+SVN usernames to GitHub usernames, so we can automatically grant access to
+existing committers when we complete the migration to GitHub. In order to
+request commit access, check out the github-usernames.txt file in meta/trunk and
+add a line in the form of $SVN_USERNAME:$GITHUB_USERNAME and commit it. For
+example:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+ mkdir tmp-llvm-svn
+ cd tmp-llvm-svn
+ svn co https://$SVN_USERNAME@llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/meta/trunk
+ echo "$SVN_USERNAME:$GITHUB_USERNAME" >> trunk/github-usernames.txt
+ cd trunk
+ svn commit -m "Request commit access for $SVN_USERNAME"
