+### Third Party Code
+
+QTIP includes a few third party code via [subrepo](https://github.com/ingydotnet/git-subrepo).
+All third party code are stored in `/third-party`.
+
+To pull the changes from remote repository, use
+
+```
+git subrepo pull third-party/<subdir>
+```
+
+It will create a new commit in parent repo, i.e. `qtip`. However, the
+auto generated commit message does not include mandatory tags such as
+`Change-Id` required by gerrit. You need to manually amend the commit to
+append those.
+
+```
+git commit --amend -s
+```
+
+Example of final commit message
