choco-pack: Package a NuGet specification specifying the version of the resulting file.
$ choco pack ${path\to\specification_file} --version ${version}
try on your machine

This command is using a package manager called Chocolatey (also known as "choco") to create a packaged software distribution.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • choco: Refers to the Chocolatey package manager.
  • pack: Is a command within Chocolatey that creates a Chocolatey package.
  • ${path\to\specification_file}: This should be replaced with the actual path to a specification file. The specification file contains the necessary information to create the package, such as the software's metadata, dependencies, installation instructions, and more. It is usually in the XML or nuspec format.
  • --version: Specifies the version of the package you want to create.
  • ${version}: This should be replaced with the actual version number you want to assign to the package.

In summary, this command is instructing Chocolatey to create a package using the specification file located at the specified path, and assign the specified version number to the package.
