 Notes to developers hacking on GObjectIntrospection
 ===================================================
 
+updating GLib bindings
+----------------------
+
+Some bindings are not generated by the libraries themselves, usually
+for dependency reasons, but are updated through some ad hoc utilities.
+
+Updating GLib, Gio, GModule, GObject bindings:
+```sh
+$ git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib.git
+$ meson _build
+$ ninja -C _build
+$ ./misc/update-glib-annotations.py glib/
+```
+
+In short, build gobject-introspection in the `_build` directory, and
+run the script on a `glib` checkout.
