 This script is using the `osc` command behind the scenes, so ensure you have it installed and correctly configured, as well as you have the correct permissions to create a new package in the project.
 
 You will then get asked to push your changes.
+
+## Testing a fork or a development branch
+
+You can create a project in your home space in OBS, use the same prjconf as the one of "isv:SUSE:Edge:Factory", and copy the repositories part of the metadata (adjust self references).
+Then add a scmsync stanza to your metadata like this (adjust repository path and branch):
+
+```xml
+<scmsync>https://src.opensuse.org/suse-edge/Factory#main</scmsync>
+```
+
+## Cutting a release version branch
+
+1. Do the appropriate git branch command
+2. Change the project path in `.obs/common.py` file (e.g. from `isv:SUSE:Edge:Factory` to `isv:SUSE:Edge:3.2`)
+3. Change the branch reference in `.obs/common.py` file (e.g. from `main` to `3.2`)
+4. Edit the `.obs/workflows.yml` file to change the references to the correct projects
+5. Commit those changes to the new branch and push the new branch
+6. Create the base and to-test projects (e.g. `isv:SUSE:Edge:3.2` and `isv:SUSE:Edge:3.2:ToTest`), use the `isv:SUSE:Edge:Factory` projects as example for metadata part
+7. Use the prjconf of Factory in all those projects
+8. Run the `.obs/sync_packages.py` script to create all the packages in the base project
+9. Go take a few cups of coffee/tea/mate/... while waiting for OBS to build everything
+10. Once built do an `osc release` of the project for it to be copied over in the `ToTest` section
+11. Hand over to QA to test whatever is in `ToTest`. (You can continue to work on the base branch if needed meanwhile)
