$ acyclic -v -n ${path-to-input-gv}

The command "acyclic" is being used with two options: "-v" and "-n". Here's what they mean:

"-v" stands for verbose mode. When this option is used, the command will provide more detailed output, giving additional information about the execution process. This can be useful for troubleshooting or gaining a deeper understanding of how the command is working.
"-n" is used to specify the path to the input ".gv" file. The ${path-to-input-gv} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the file you want to process. The ".gv" file format typically represents a graph structure using the Graphviz software. The "acyclic" command is used to determine if the graph is cyclic (contains loops) or acyclic (does not contain loops).

By using the "acyclic" command with these options, you will receive a verbose output while the command processes the given input ".gv" file to determine if it contains any cycles or not.
