+.. _mach_usage:
+
+==========
+User Guide
+==========
+
+Mach is the central entry point for most operations that can be performed in
+mozilla-central.
+
+
+Command Help
+------------
+
+To see an overview of all the available commands, run:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach help
+
+For more detailed information on a specific command, run:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach help <command>
+
+If a command has subcommands listed, you can see more details on the subcommand
+by running:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach help <command> <subcommand>
+
+Alternatively, you can pass ``-h/--help``. For example, all of the
+following are valid:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach help try
+    $ ./mach help try fuzzy
+    $ ./mach try -h
+    $ ./mach try fuzzy --help
+
+
+Tab Completion
+--------------
+
+There are commands built-in to ``mach`` that can generate a fast tab completion
+script for various shells. Supported shells are currently ``bash``, ``zsh`` and
+``fish``. These generated scripts will slowly become out of date over time, so
+you may want to create a cron task to periodically re-generate them.
+
+See below for installation instructions:
+
+Bash
+~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ mach mach-completion bash -f _mach
+    $ sudo mv _mach /etc/bash_completion.d
+
+Bash (homebrew)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ mach mach-completion bash -f $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/mach.bash-completion
+
+Zsh
+~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ mkdir ~/.zfunc
+    $ mach mach-completion zsh -f ~/.zfunc/_mach
+
+then edit ~/.zshrc and add:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    fpath+=~/.zfunc
+    autoload -U compinit && compinit
+
+You can use any directory of your choosing.
+
+Zsh (oh-my-zsh)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ mkdir $ZSH/plugins/mach
+    $ mach mach-completion zsh -f $ZSH/plugins/mach/_mach
+
+then edit ~/.zshrc and add 'mach' to your enabled plugins:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    plugins(mach ...)
+
+Zsh (prezto)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ mach mach-completion zsh -f ~/.zprezto/modules/completion/external/src/_mach
+
+Fish
+~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach mach-completion fish -f ~/.config/fish/completions/mach.fish
+
+Fish (homebrew)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach mach-completion fish -f (brew --prefix)/share/fish/vendor_completions.d/mach.fish
+
+
+User Settings
+-------------
+
+Some mach commands can read configuration from a ``machrc`` file. The default
+location for this file is ``~/.mozbuild/machrc`` (you'll need to create it).
+This can also be set to a different location by setting the ``MACHRC``
+environment variable.
+
+For a list of all the available settings, run:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+    $ ./mach settings
+
+The settings file follows the ``ini`` format, e.g:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [alias]
+    eslint = lint -l eslint
+
+    [build]
+    telemetry = true
+
+    [try]
+    default = fuzzy
+
