ostree: Create a commit (snapshot) of the files.

try on your machine

The command ostree commit is used to create a new commit in an OSTree repository. It is typically used to add, modify, or remove content in the repository.

Here is the breakdown of the different components of the command:

  • --repo ${path-to-repo}: This option specifies the path to the OSTree repository where the commit will be created. The ${path-to-repo} placeholder needs to be replaced with the actual path to the repository directory.

  • --branch ${branch_name}: This option specifies the name of the branch where the commit will be created. The ${branch_name} placeholder needs to be replaced with the desired branch name.

Overall, this command is used to make changes to the specified OSTree repository by creating a new commit on the specified branch.
