+### Receiving automatic mechanic updates from the original template
+
+When updates are made to files that aren't specific to the course content but instead run checks and other processes in the original repository, PRs are filed automatically to any downstream repositories made from this template.
+
+To enroll in these automatic update PRs, the new course's repository name will need to be added to [this file in the original template](https://github.com/jhudsl/DaSL_Course_Template_Bookdown/blob/main/.github/sync.yml) where it says `#NEW REPO HERE#`.
+File a pull request to make this change.
+If the your new course doesn't need some of the functionality of these files or you find the automatic you can feel free to use [this guide](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/repo-file-sync-action#sync-the-same-files-to-multiple-repositories) to tailor which files you want updates for.
