-## Secret setup to pull from ghcr.io
-
-Container images will be pulled from the GitHub container registry.
-You will need to provide the login credentials as a secret to k8s.
-[Follow the GitHub documentation on acquiring a personal access token.](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-container-registry#authenticating-to-the-container-registry)
-
-To save yourself some work, you'll find a script which generates the configuration file to correctly provision the
-access token to your k8s instance in this directory.
-Simply run the following commands.
-
-```
-$ ./generate-k8s-secret-yaml.sh "<GitHub username>" "<GitHub access token>" > ghcr-secret.yaml
-$ kubectl apply -f ghcr-secret.yaml
-```
-
-**It is highly encouraged to delete the resulting YAML file afterwards since it contains your access token in
-(obfuscated) plain text.**
-
-## Deploy to k8s
-
 To deploy, simply run the following commands.
