 [`git subtree`](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/contrib/subtree/git-subtree.txt)
 is the recommended way of maintaining a copy of the rules inside the
-`build-rules` directory of a project. This way, it is possible to make
+`release-tools` directory of a project. This way, it is possible to make
 changes also locally, test them and then push them back to the shared
 repository at a later time.
 
 Cheat sheet:
 
-- `git subtree pull --prefix=build-rules https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-build-rules.git master` - update local copy to latest upstream
-- edit, `git commit`, `git subtree push --prefix=build-rules [email protected]:<user>/csi-build-rules.git <my-new-or-existing-branch>` - push to a new branch before submitting a PR
+- `git subtree add --prefix=release-tools https://github.com/pohly/csi-release-tools.git master` - add release tools to a repo which does not have them yet (only once)
+- `git subtree pull --prefix=release-tools https://github.com/kubernetes-csi/csi-release-tools.git master` - update local copy to latest upstream (whenever upstream changes)
+- edit, `git commit`, `git subtree push --prefix=release-tools [email protected]:<user>/csi-release-tools.git <my-new-or-existing-branch>` - push to a new branch before submitting a PR
