+Gentoo
+------
+
+General note: It is recommended (and assumed here) that the most recent existing
+ebuild is used as the baseline.
+
+The instructions furthermore assume that you have [`cargo-ebuild`][] installed
+and ready for use.
+
+1. Clone the [nitrocli repository][] locally.
+2. Check out the tagged release you want to create an ebuild for. E.g., `git
+ checkout v0.2.1`.
+3. Run `cargo ebuild` inside the `nitrocli/` directory. It will produce an
+ ebuild in the same directory.
+4. Fork and then clone the official Gentoo Portage tree available at
+ https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo.git.
+5. Change the working directory to `app-crypt/nitrocli`.
+6. Create a copy of the most recently released build. For example,
+ `cp nitrocli-0.2.0.ebuild nitrocli-0.2.1.ebuild`
+7. Copy over the `CRATES` variable definition from the `cargo-ebuild` created
+ ebuild (step 6) into `nitrocli-0.2.1.ebuild` and adjust it as needed (there
+ may be duplicate entries).
+8. More adjustments to the ebuild may be necessary, depending on the changes
+ made to the program.
+9. Run `ebuild nitrocli-0.2.1.ebuild manifest` to update the manifest.
+10. `FEATURES=test USE=test emerge =nitrocli-0.2.1`
+11. Create a commit that includes the ebuild and the *non-ebuild-parts* of
+ `Manifest`. Make sure to include a `Signed-off-by` field in the description.
+11. Create a pull request for this commit as usual.
