ostree: Show repo summary.
$ ostree summary --repo ${path-to-repo} --view
try on your machine

The command "ostree summary --repo ${path-to-repo} --view" is used to get a summary of the contents in an OSTree repository.

Here's a breakdown of the different parts of the command:

  • "ostree summary": This is the main command used to access OSTree's summary functionality.
  • "--repo ${path-to-repo}": This option specifies the path to the OSTree repository for which you want to retrieve the summary. You need to replace "${path-to-repo}" with the actual path to your repository.
  • "--view": This option determines the style or view in which you want to display the summary. The possible values for this option are "bare" (displays in a machine-readable format), "html" (displays in HTML format), and "default" (displays in a human-readable format).

By executing this command, you will receive a summary of the OSTree repository specified by the path provided, displayed in the view style specified.
