+template:
 
 ```
-make deploy OR_PORT=X PT_PORT=Y EMAIL=Z
+# Your bridge's Tor port.
+export OR_PORT=X
+# Your bridge's obfs4 port.
+export PT_PORT=Y
+# Your email address.
+export EMAIL=Z
 ```
 
 Replace `X` with your desired OR port, `Y` with your obfs4 port (make sure that
 **both** ports are forwarded in your firewall), and `Z` with your email address,
 which allows us to get in touch with you if there are problems with your bridge.
-If everything worked fine, you should see output similar to the following:
+With your bridge configuration in place, you can now deploy the container:

 To upgrade to the latest version of our image, you need to stop your existing
-container, delete it, pull the latest image, and finally deploy it:

 ```
 docker stop CONTAINER_ID
 docker rm CONTAINER_ID
 docker pull phwinter/obfs4-bridge:latest

+source bridge.sh && make deploy
 ```
 
+Note that your bridge's data directory (which includes its key material) is
+stored in a docker volume, so you won't lose your bridge's identity when
+upgrading to the latest docker image.  If you are running multiple bridges on
+your computer, you need to repeat this step for each bridge.  We will announce
+new image versions on the

+list.

 ### 4. Monitor your logs
 
 You can inspect your bridge's logs by running:
