dep: Display help for a command.
$ dep help ${command}
try on your machine

The command "dep help ${command}" is used to display detailed information and usage instructions about a specific command in the dependency management tool called dep.

Here's a breakdown of the command and its components:

  • "dep": This is the primary command used to interact with the dep tool. It is usually followed by subcommands or flags to specify what action or information you want from dep.

  • "help": This is a subcommand of dep. It is used to request help or documentation about dep or its subcommands.

  • "${command}": This is a placeholder or variable that represents the specific command for which you want help. You need to replace "${command}" with the actual name of the command you want help with.

For example, let's say you want to get help for the "init" command in dep. You would run the command "dep help init". This will display detailed information, usage instructions, and examples specifically for the "init" command.

Similarly, you can use "dep help" followed by other valid commands or subcommands to get help for each of them.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
