+Blender Buildbot
+================
+
+Code signing
+------------
+
+Code signing is done as part of INSTALL target, which makes it possible to sign
+files which are aimed into a bundle and coming from a non-signed source (such as
+libraries SVN).
+
+This is achieved by specifying `slave_codesign.cmake` as a post-install script
+run by CMake. This CMake script simply involves an utility script written in
+Python which takes care of an actual signing.
+
+### Configuration
+
+Client configuration doesn't need anything special, other than variable
+`SHARED_STORAGE_DIR` pointing to a location which is watched by a server.
+This is done in `config_builder.py` file and is stored in Git (which makes it
+possible to have almost zero-configuration buildbot machines).
+
+Server configuration requires copying `config_server_template.py` under the
+name of `config_server.py` and tweaking values, which are platform-specific.
+
+#### Windows configuration
+
+There are two things which are needed on Windows in order to have code signing
+to work:
+
+- `TIMESTAMP_AUTHORITY_URL` which is most likely set http://timestamp.digicert.com
+- `CERTIFICATE_FILEPATH` which is a full file path to a PKCS #12 key (.pfx).
+
+## Tips
+
+### Self-signed certificate on Windows
+
+It is easiest to test configuration using self-signed certificate.
+
+The certificate manipulation utilities are coming with Windows SDK.
+Unfortunately, they are not added to PATH. Here is an example of how to make
+sure they are easily available:
+
+```
+set PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\App Certification Kit;%PATH%
+set PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.18362.0\x64;%PATH%
+```
+
+Generate CA:
+
+```
+makecert -r -pe -n "CN=Blender Test CA" -ss CA -sr CurrentUser -a sha256 ^
+         -cy authority -sky signature -sv BlenderTestCA.pvk BlenderTestCA.cer
+```
+
+Import the generated CA:
+
+```
+certutil -user -addstore Root BlenderTestCA.cer
+```
+
+Create self-signed certificate and pack it into PKCS #12:
+
+```
+makecert -pe -n "CN=Blender Test SPC" -a sha256 -cy end ^
+         -sky signature ^
+         -ic BlenderTestCA.cer -iv BlenderTestCA.pvk ^
+         -sv BlenderTestSPC.pvk BlenderTestSPC.cer
+
+pvk2pfx -pvk BlenderTestSPC.pvk -spc BlenderTestSPC.cer -pfx BlenderTestSPC.pfx
+```
