-To start using it, you need to add `Got` to `vc-handled-backends` and
-make sure that `vc-got` is within your `load-path`.  You shouldn't
-require the library.
+To start using it make sure that `vc-got` is within your `load-path`
+and `Got` is in the `vc-handled-backends` list.
 
-```emacs-lisp
-(add-to-list 'vc-handled-backends 'Got)

-
-It's highly recommended to add `".got"` to the list of
-`vc-directory-exclusion-list`.
-
-```emacs-lisp
-(add-to-list 'vc-directory-exclusion-list ".got")
-```
-
 With `use-package` something like this should be enough:
 
 ```emacs-lisp
 (use-package vc-got
   :load-path "/path/to/vc-got/"
-  :defer t
-  :init
-  (add-to-list 'vc-handled-backends 'Got)
-  (add-to-list 'vc-directory-exclusion-list ".got"))
+  :defer t)
 ```
