This command is related to TeX Live Manager (tlmgr), a package manager for TeX Live, a popular distribution of the TeX typesetting system.
The command "tlmgr pinning remove ${repository} --all" is used to remove package pinning in TeX Live. Package pinning allows you to specify certain versions of packages that should be used, even if newer versions are available. By removing package pinning, you allow tlmgr to select the latest versions of packages based on the specified TeX Live repository.
Let's break down the command:
- "tlmgr" refers to the TeX Live Manager command-line tool.
- "pinning remove" is the action being performed, indicating that we want to remove package pinning.
- "${repository}" is a placeholder for the name of the TeX Live repository from which package pinning should be removed. Repositories in TeX Live usually represent different versions or distributions of TeX Live.
- "--all" is an additional option that specifies that all package pinning for the given repository should be removed.
So, when you execute this command with the appropriate repository name, it will remove any package pinning that was set for that repository, allowing tlmgr to use the latest versions of packages from that repository.
