+In the following sections of this chapter you will explore package authoring
+using Porch. You will need:
+
+* A GitHub repository for your blueprints. An otherwise empty repository with an
+  initial commit works best. The initial commit is required to establish the
+  `main` branch.
+* A GitHub [Personal Access Token](https://github.com/settings/tokens) with
+  the `repo` scope for Porch to authenticate with the repository and allow it
+  to create commits in the repository.
+
+Use the `kpt alpha repo register` command to register your repository with
+Porch: The command below uses the repository `deployments.git`.
+Your repository name may be different; please update the command with the
+correct repository name.
+
+```sh
+# Register your Git repository:
+
+GITHUB_USERNAME=<GitHub Username>
+GITHUB_TOKEN=<GitHub Personal Access Token>
+REPOSITORY_ADDRESS=<Your Repository URL>
+
+$ kpt alpha repo register \
+  --namespace default \
+  --name deployments \
+  --deployment \
+  --repo-basic-username=${GITHUB_USERNAME} \
+  --repo-basic-password=${GITHUB_TOKEN} \
+  ${REPOSITORY_ADDRESS}
+```
+
+And register the sample repository we used in the [quickstart](./02-quickstart):
+
+```sh
+# Register the sample repository:
+
+kpt alpha repo register --namespace default \
+  https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kpt-samples.git
+```
+
+?> Refer to the [register command reference][register-doc] for usage.
+
+You now have two repositories registered, and your repository is marked as
+deployment repository. This indicates that published packages in the repository
+are considered deployment-ready.
+
+```sh
+# Query repositories registered with Porch:
+$ kpt alpha repo get
+NAME         TYPE  CONTENT  DEPLOYMENT  READY  ADDRESS
+deployments  git   Package  true        True   [Your repository address]
