that's it, that's the summoning circle ⭐

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

bestie these are not even this command's own options — they're inherited from the parent commands, and they are absolutely here whether you asked or not 🫶 all defaults shown are the defaults.

• --debug[=false] — spill ALL the debug messages, every last one, we're nosy 🐛
• --explain[=false] — if the command is valid, it explains its parsed arguments instead of actually running it. it's giving "read the receipt before you spend" 😭 not me checking first for once
• --force-local[=false] — forces using the local unix socket, no remote bestie today, staying home 🌸
• -h, --help[=false] — print help. our emotional support flag 💖
• --project="" — override the source project. note the default is the empty string "" ⭐
• -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. shhh mode 🤫 lowkey iconic
• --sub-commands[=false] — use this with help or --help to view sub-commands 👀 peek behind the curtain
• -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages, we love a yapper 🌈
• --version[=false] — print version number, aka the "who even are you" check 👑

---

💜 EXAMPLE 💜

stealing a project config like it's a fit pic:

incus project edit <project> < project.yaml
    Update a project using the content of project.yaml

so you're piping project.yaml in from stdin and it updates the project with that content ✨ project is a placeholder, swap in your actual project name, don't paste the angle brackets fr fr 😭
