+CONTRIBUTING
+
+Thank you for considering contributing to this distribution. This file
+contains instructions that will help you work with the source code.
+
+PLEASE NOTE that if you have any questions or difficulties, you can reach the
+maintainer(s) through the bug queue described later in this document
+(preferred), or by emailing the releaser directly. You are not required to
+follow any of the steps in this document to submit a patch or bug report;
+these are just recommendations, intended to help you (and help us help you
+faster).
+
+The distribution is managed with Dist::Zilla (https://metacpan.org/release/Dist-Zilla).
+This means than many of the usual files you might expect are not in the
+repository, but are generated at release time (e.g. Makefile.PL).
+
+However, you can run tests directly using the 'prove' tool:
+
+ $ prove -l
+ $ prove -lv t/some_test_file.t
+ $ prove -lvr t/
+
+In most cases, 'prove' is entirely sufficent for you to test any
+patches you have.
+
+You may need to satisfy some dependencies. The easiest way to satisfy
+dependencies is to install the last release -- this is available at
+https://metacpan.org/release/Catalyst-Authentication-Store-Htpasswd
+
+If you use cpanminus, you can do it without downloading the tarball first:
+
+ $ cpanm --reinstall --installdeps --with-recommends Catalyst::Authentication::Store::Htpasswd
+
+Dist::Zilla is a very powerful authoring tool, but requires a number of
+author-specific plugins. If you would like to use it for contributing,
+install it from CPAN, then run one of the following commands, depending on
+your CPAN client:
+
+ $ cpan `dzil authordeps --missing`
+or
+ $ dzil authordeps --missing | cpanm
+
+You should then also install any additional requirements not needed by the
+dzil build but may be needed by tests or other development:
+
+ $ cpan `dzil listdeps --author --missing`
+or
+ $ dzil listdeps --author --missing | cpanm
+
+Or, you can use the 'dzil stale' command to install all requirements at once:
+
+ $ cpan Dist::Zilla::App::Command::stale
+ $ cpan `dzil stale --all`
+or
+ $ cpanm Dist::Zilla::App::Command::stale
+ $ dzil stale --all | cpanm
+
+You can also do this via cpanm directly:
+
+ $ cpanm --reinstall --installdeps --with-develop --with-recommends Catalyst::Authentication::Store::Htpasswd
+
+Once installed, here are some dzil commands you might try:
+
+ $ dzil build
+ $ dzil test
+ $ dzil test --release
+ $ dzil xtest
+ $ dzil listdeps --json
+ $ dzil build --notgz
+
+You can learn more about Dist::Zilla at http://dzil.org/.
+
+The code for this distribution is hosted at GitHub. The repository is:
+https://github.com/perl-catalyst/Catalyst-Authentication-Store-Htpasswd
+You can submit code changes by forking the repository, pushing your code
+changes to your clone, and then submitting a pull request. Detailed
+instructions for doing that is available here:
+
+https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request
+
+If you have found a bug, but do not have an accompanying patch to fix it, you
+can submit an issue report here:
+https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Catalyst-Authentication-Store-Htpasswd
+or via email: bug-Catalyst-Authentication-Store-Htpasswd@rt.cpan.org

+If you send me a patch or pull request, your name and email address will be
+included in the documentation as a contributor (using the attribution on the
+commit or patch), unless you specifically request for it not to be. If you
+wish to be listed under a different name or address, you should submit a pull
+request to the .mailmap file to contain the correct mapping.
