ostree: Show files in commit.
$ ostree ls --repo ${path-to-repo} ${commit_id}
try on your machine

The command "ostree ls" is used to list the contents of an ostree repository. Ostree is a tool for managing bootable, immutable file systems. It is commonly used in Linux systems for managing operating system deployments and updates.

"--repo ${path-to-repo}" specifies the path to the ostree repository. This is the location on the filesystem where the ostree repository is stored. You need to replace "${path-to-repo}" with the actual path to your ostree repository.

"${commit_id}" is the identifier for a specific commit in the ostree repository. Each commit represents a version of the filesystem tree. The commit ID uniquely identifies a specific commit in the repository, and the command will list the contents of that commit.

So, when you run the command "ostree ls --repo ${path-to-repo} ${commit_id}", it will list the contents (files, directories, etc.) of the specified commit in the ostree repository located at the given path.
