			Configuring repository automation so Phabricator can push commits.


			Overview
			========

			IMPORTANT: This feature is very new and most of the capabilities described
			in this document are not yet available. This feature as a whole is a prototype.

			By configuring Drydock and Diffusion appropriately, you can enable **Repository
			Automation** for a repository. Once automation is set up, Phabricator will be
			able to make changes to the repository.


			Security
			========

			Configuring repository automation amounts to telling Phabricator where it
			should perform working copy operations (like merges, cherry-picks and pushes)
			when doing writes.

			Depending on how stringent you are about change control, you may want to
			make sure these processes are isolated and can not be tampered with. If you
			run tests and automation on the same hardware, tests may be able to interfere
			with automation. You can read more about this in
			@{article:Drydock User Guide: Security}.
