+# For maintainers only
+
+### Setup your minio Github Repository
+
+Fork [minio upstream](https://github.com/minio/minio/fork) source repository to your own personal repository.
+```bash
+$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/minio
+$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/minio
+$ git clone https://github.com/$USER_ID/minio
+$ 
+```
+
+``minio`` uses [govendor](https://github.com/kardianos/govendor) for its dependency management.
+
+### To manage dependencies
+
+#### Add new dependencies
+
+  - Run `go get foo/bar`
+  - Edit your code to import foo/bar
+  - Run `govendor add foo/bar` from top-level folder
+
+#### Remove dependencies 
+
+  - Run `govendor remove foo/bar`
+
+#### Update dependencies
+
+  - Run `govendor remove +vendor`
+  - Run to update the dependent package `go get -u foo/bar`
+  - Run `govendor add +external`
+
+### Making new releases 
+
+`minio` doesn't follow semantic versioning style, `minio` instead uses the release date and time as the release versions.
+
+`make release` will install new released binary into your `GOPATH`
