=== What the Makefiles do, or How to make your own updates ===
The build system generates update MAR files using the Makefile and associated scripts in the [http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/default/tools/update-packaging tools/update-packaging] source directory. The Makefile isn't strictly necessary though. It simply formats the calls to the other scripts based on values stored in environment variables, making it easier to automate update generation.
 
==== Creating a complete MAR ====
This script used to generate a complete MAR file is [http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/default/tools/update-packaging/make_full_update.sh make_full_update.sh].
 
==== Creating a partial MAR ====
This script used to generate a partial MAR file is [http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/default/tools/update-packaging/make_incremental_update.sh make_incremental_update.sh].
