+The Firefox mozconfig files
+---------------------------
+
+In the gitian build, we are using the mozconfig files included in the
+tor-browser.git repository (the .mozconfig, .mozconfig-mac and
+.mozconfig-mingw files).
+
+In the rbm build however, we need to make some small modifications to
+those files, so we are instead using mozconfig files stored in the
+projects/firefox/ directory and ignoring the .mozconfig files from the
+tor-browser.git repository.
+
+This could change in the future, when we are not using gitian anymore.
