 ## Registries
 
-By default, the CLI will pull chain metadata and contract addresses from the [canonical Hyperlane Registry](https://github.com/hyperlane-xyz/hyperlane-registry) but will write new configs and deployments to your local filesystem. For more information see the [Registries page](/docs/reference/registries.mdx).

 The CLI has two command line arguments for configuring the registry it uses:
 
 - The `--registry` flag sets the primary registry and uses the default Github registry if not set
-- The `--overrides` flag sets an optional additional path which can be useful for forcing specific overrides of the default data, for example to use a different RPC URL in a chain's metadata.

 Once your custom registry additions/updates are complete and tested, consider opening a pull request to the canonical registry so that others can benefit from your deployments.
