+## FAQ
+
+### Updating the Console tools
+
+The following commands will help you with updating the Console tools:
+
+- `kimai self:check` - check if there is a new version available
+- `kimai self:update` - update your local version to the latest release
+- `kimai self:rollback` - rollback to a previous release
+
+There are security concerns with this approach, if you are cautious stick to the initial installation process.
+
+The `update` command will create a copy beside the original executable (if you wondered what `kimai-old.phar` is: now you know!), which is used by the `rollback` command.  
+
+### Check the contents of the PHAR
+
+There are several ways to see the contents of the PHAR, here are some:
+
+```
+phar extract -f kimai.phar
+box info kimai.phar -l
+```
+
+The PHAR contents are GZ compressed and verified with a SHA512 signature by the PHAR interpreter.
+
+### Build from source
+
+You need to have PHP cli installed with all required dependencies. 
+The dependencies might differ from than the ones required for running the tools. 
+Then install the [humbug/box](https://github.com/humbug/box) project, 
+according to their [installation docs](https://github.com/humbug/box/blob/master/doc/installation.md#installation).
+
+Now compiling the PHAR is simple as calling:
+
+```bash
+box compile
+```
+
+### Release on GitHub
 
 - Bump version in `src/Constants.php`
 - Execute `box compile`
+- Execute `sha1sum kimai.phar > kimai.phar.sha1`
 - Prepare a new GitHub release
-- Upload the file `kimai.phar` to the new release
+- Upload the files `kimai.phar` and `kimai.phar.sha1` to the new release
+- Publish the release
