 gst-build also contains a special `uninstalled` target that lets you enter an
-uninstalled development environment where you will be able to work on GStreamer easily.

+## Update git subprojects
+
+We added a special `update` target to update subprojects (it uses `git pull
+--rebase` meaning you should always make sure the branches you work on are
+following the right upstream branch, you can set it with `git branch
+--set-upstream-to origin/master` if you are working on `gst-build` master
+branch).
+
+Update all GStreamer modules and rebuild:
+
+```
+ninja -C build/ update
+```
+
+Update all GStreamer modules without rebuilding:
+
+```
+ninja -C build/ git-update
+```
