 would treat it as if it is talking with a remote side over the
 network.
 
+A complete bundle is one that does not require you to have any
+prerequisite object for you to extract its contents.  Not only you
+can fetch/pull from a bundle, you can clone from a complete bundle
+as if it was a remote repository, like this:
+
+----------------
+$ git clone /home/me/tmp/file.bdl mine.git
+----------------
+
+This will define a remote called "origin" in the resulting
+repository that lets you fetch and pull from the bundle, just
+like the previous example lets you do with the remote called
+"bundle", and from then on you can fetch/pull to update the
+resulting mine.git repository after replacing the bundle you store
+at /home/me/tmp/file.bdl with incremental updates.
