6 bpkg-rep-create - create repository
7
9 bpkg rep-create [options] [dir]
10
12 The rep-create command regenerates the packages.manifest file based on
13 the files present in the repository directory. If the repositories.man‐
14 ifest file contains a certificate, then the signature.manifest file is
15 regenerated as well. In this case the --key option must be used to
16 specify the certificate's private key. If dir is not specified, then
17 the current working directory is used as the repository root.
18
20 --ignore-unknown
21 Ignore unknown manifest entries. Note that this option also ig‐
22 nores the version constraints in the special toolchain build-
23 time dependencies.
24 --min-bpkg-version ver
26 Apply backward compatibility workarounds to the generated pack‐
27 ages.manifest file so that it can be consumed by bpkg versions
28 greater or equal to the specified version. If unspecified, then
29 the min-bpkg-version value from the repositories.manifest file
30 is used, if present. If the manifest value is not specified ei‐
31 ther, then no backward compatibility workarounds are applied.
32 --key name
34 Private key to use to sign the repository. In most cases name
35 will be a path to the key file but it can also be a key id when
36 a custom openssl cryptographic engine is used.
