fr fr bestie, that's the whole name section: we're making a directory in an overlay, and it's gonna be cute.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

wwctl overlay mkdir [OPTIONS] OVERLAY_NAME DIRECTORY

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This command creates a new directory within the Warewulf OVERLAY_NAME. Like, that's literally the job — new directory, inside the Warewulf overlay you named. Slay.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -h, --help[=false] — help for mkdir, aka the "show me the help text" option.
• -m, --mode=493 — Permission mode for directory. The value is exactly 493, so keep it exactly like that, no cap.

🫶 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🫶

These ones are inherited from the parent commands — not new, just vibing down the command tree:

• -d, --debug[=false] — Run with debugging messages enabled.
