gibo: Write a boilerplate to `stdout`.
$ gibo dump ${boilerplate}
try on your machine

The command "gibo dump ${boilerplate}" is likely a command that uses the "gibo" tool to retrieve a collection of gitignore boilerplate code and dump it into a specific file or location.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "gibo" is a command-line tool that helps you generate .gitignore files for your projects by providing pre-populated templates for common project types and programming languages.
  • "dump" is an argument or subcommand of "gibo" that tells the tool to output the generated gitignore content.
  • "${boilerplate}" is a placeholder for a variable or a specific template name. It typically represents the type of project or programming language for which you want to generate the gitignore file.

By using this command, you should get the boilerplate gitignore content related to the specified variable or template dumped somewhere, allowing you to use it in your project. The exact behavior and destination of the dumped content may vary depending on the configuration or additional parameters.
