+On each Pull Request opened in GitHub we run GitHub Actions test jobs to provide prompt feedback about the status of PR. Our more thorough main CI pipeline runs nightly on GitLab CI. GitLab repository automatically mirrors our GitHub repository and runs pipeline on `master` branch every night. It tests more environments and different configurations. It publishes a variety of artifacts such as our [homepage](https://rdatatable.gitlab.io/data.table/) and [CRAN-like website for dev version](https://rdatatable.gitlab.io/data.table/web/packages/data.table/index.html), including windows binaries for the dev version.

 ### [`publish.R`](./publish.R)
 
 Base R implemented helper script to orchestrate generation of most artifacts and to arrange them nicely. It is being used only in [_integration_ stage in GitLab CI pipeline](./../.gitlab-ci.yml).
+
+## GitLab Open Source Program
+
+We are currently part of the [GitLab for Open Source Program](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/). This gives us 50,000 compute minutes per month for our GitLab CI. Our license needs to be renewed yearly (around July) and is currently managed by @ben-schwen.
+
+## Updating CI pipeline
+
+Basic CI checks are also run on every push to the GitLab repository. This can **and should** be used for PRs changing the CI pipeline before merging them to master.
+
+```shell
+# fetch changes from remote (GitHub) and push them to GitLab 
+git fetch [email protected]:Rdatatable/data.table.git new_branch:new_branch
+git push
+# after updating on GitHub, pull changes from remote and push to GitLab
+git pull [email protected]:Rdatatable/data.table.git new_branch
+git push
+```
+
+Make sure to include a link to the pipeline results in your PR.
