+@PLUGIN@ extension points
+==============
+
+The @PLUGIN@ plugin exposes an extension point to allow influencing its
+behaviour from another plugin or a script.
+Extension points are available only when the plugin extension points module
+is loaded as [libModule](/config-gerrit.html#gerrit.installModule) and
+implemented by another plugin which depends on this as `provided`
+dependency.
+
+### Install extension libModule
+
+The @PLUGIN@ plugin's extension points are defined in the
+`c.g.g.p.r.p.ReplicationExtensionPointModule` that needs to be configured
+as libModule.
+
+Create a symbolic link from `$GERRIT_SITE/plugins/@PLUGIN@.jar` into
+`$GERRIT_SITE/lib` and then add the @PLUGIN@ extension module to the
+`gerrit.config`.
+
+Example:
+
+```
+[gerrit]
+  installModule = com.googlesource.gerrit.plugins.replication.pull.ReplicationExtensionPointModule
+```
+
+> **NOTE**: Use and configuration of the @PLUGIN@ plugin as library module
+requires a Gerrit server restart and does not support hot plugin install or
+upgrade.
+
+
+### Extension points
+
+* `com.googlesource.gerrit.plugins.replication.pull.ReplicationFetchFilter`
+
+  Filter out the refs fetched from a remote instance.
+  Only one filter at a time is supported. Filter implementation needs to
+  bind a `DynamicItem`.
+
+  Default: no filtering
+
+  Example:
+
+  ```
+  DynamicItem.bind(binder(), ReplicationFetchFilter.class).to(ReplicationFetchFilterImpl.class);
+  ```
