+## Branches
+
+Each branch of this project represents an example:
+
+ - [`main` is the standard example](https://github.com/PaperMC/paperweight-examples/tree/main)
+ - [`submodules` shows how paperweight can be applied on a fork using the more traditional git submodule system](https://github.com/PaperMC/paperweight-examples/tree/submodules)
+ - [`mojangapi` shows how a fork could patch arbitrary non-git directories (such as `Paper-MojangAPI`)](https://github.com/PaperMC/paperweight-examples/tree/mojangapi)
+ - [`submodules-mojang` shows the same as `mojangapi`, but on the git submodules setup from `submodules`](https://github.com/PaperMC/paperweight-examples/tree/submodules-mojangapi)
