+# Buildbot
+
+Buildbot is a continuous integration framework that we use to build Dolphin patches on different platforms. Builds can be triggered automatically (e.g., when a whitelisted GitHub user creates/updates a pull request) or manually (e.g., using the Tools/buildbot-try.sh helper script). Ping delroth on IRC to get access.
+
+## Configuration File
+---
+
+Use this template to create a `~/.buildbot/options` file:
+
+```
+try_connect = 'pb'
+try_master = 'buildbot.dolphin-emu.org:8031'
+try_username = '<user>'
+try_password = '<password>'
+try_who = '<realname>'
+try_builders = ['wip-win-x86', 'wip-win-x64', 'wip-osx-x64', 'wip-deb-x64', 'wip-ubu-x64', 'wip-android']
+try_vc = 'git'
+
+from twisted.spread import banana
+banana.SIZE_LIMIT = 100 * 1024 * 1024
+```
+
+To override the `try_builders` setting use one or more `--builder` parameters.
