+## Updating Packages
+You can easily update your installed packages by running:
+```
+pkgit update
+```
+Or the short command:
+```
+pkgit u
+```

+## Declaring Packages
+If you prefer a declarative approach, you can use the config file (read below) as a package declaration file.
+When you're ready, you can declare all your packages at once with:
+```
+pkgit declare
+```
+Or the short command:
+```
+pkgit d
+```
+
 ## Dependency Management
 As it is, pkgit is capable of dependency management, but you will likely have to specify the dependency URLs for each package you install in `<config_directory>/pkgit/init.lua`. There's not a universal way to check for dependencies without using an existing package manager (unless the package you're installing has a bldit.lua).
