+This page outlines the steps that need to be done to create a new golang.org/x repository, in order for it to have the same properties as all existing golang.org/x repositories:
+- a golang.org/x redirect
+- automatic git mirroring from Gerrit to GitHub
+- automatic importing of GitHub PRs into Gerrit CLs
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Create a new empty Gerrit repository at https://go.googlesource.com, complete with a description.
+	- Create an initial commit with `AUTHORS`, `CONTRIBUTORS`, `LICENSE`, `PATENTS`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and `README.md` files and push it directly to the Gerrit repository. See [example commit](https://github.com/golang/website/commit/001739136e65994ef188a26c9a099fb41e4f9d67).
+	- See the internal team instructions at go/go-gerrit#new-repository for how to create a repository.
+2. Create a [new empty GitHub repository](https://github.com/organizations/golang/repositories/new) at https://github.com/golang with the same name and description.
+	- Turn off Wikis, Issues, Projects in repository settings.
+	- On "Manage access" tab:
+		- Add "golang org admins" team with Admin access.
+		- Add "gophers" team with Write access.
+		- Add "robots" team with Write access (can only be done by a maintainer of golang organization; ask someone else if you're not).
+3. Modify the `x/build/repos` package.
+4. Update x/website's version of x/build to include modified `x/build/repos` package.
+5. Redeploy all affected commands (or ask an x/build [owner](https://dev.golang.org/owners) to deploy if you're not; the order shouldn't matter):
+	1. `x/build/cmd/gitmirror`
+	2. `x/build/maintner/maintnerd`
+		- Note that it's expected for the new repo not to appear in maintner until first issue or PR is created (see [#25744](https://go.dev/issue/25744)).
+	3. `x/build/cmd/gerritbot`
+	4. `x/build/cmd/coordinator` 
+	5. `x/website/cmd/golangorg`
+6. You're done.
