+# Maintaining undici
+
+The [undici](https://github.com/nodejs/undici) dependency is
+an HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js.
+
+## Updating undici
+
+The `tools/dep_updaters/update-undici.sh` script automates the update of the
+undici source files.
+
+Check that Node.js still builds and tests.
+
+## Committing postject
+
+1. Add undici:
+   ```console
+   $ git add deps/undici
+   ```
+2. Commit the changes: `git commit`.
+3. Add a message like:
+
+   ```text
+   deps,test: update undici to <version>
+
+   Updated as described in doc/contributing/maintaining-undici.md.
+   ```
