+## Publishing your own personal snapshot build
 
+You may find that your un-merged change needs some validation from external participants.
+Rather than requiring them to pull your Pull Request and build Angular locally, you can
+publish the `*-builds` snapshots just like our Travis build does.
+
+First time, you need to create the github repositories:
+
+``` shell
+$ export TOKEN=[get one from https://github.com/settings/tokens]
+$ CREATE_REPOS=1 ./scripts/publish/publish-build-artifacts.sh [github username]
+```
+
+For subsequent snapshots, just run
+
+``` shell
+$ ./scripts/publish/publish-build-artifacts.sh [github username]
+```
