+# dehub-server
+
+This directory provides a simple Docker image which can be spun up to run a
+dehub-enabled server (i.e. one in which incoming commits will be verified prior
+to being accepted into their branch).
+
+The Dockerfile being used is based on
+[gitbox](https://github.com/nmarus/docker-gitbox), so thank you to nmarus for
+the great work there.
