💖 NAME 💖

App::Pinto::Command::copy — bestie, this makes a whole new stack by copying another one. Fr fr.

✨ VERSION ✨

version 0.14 — she's giving vintage but still slaying 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT copy [OPTIONS] STACK TO_STACK

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here's the tea: this command creates a brand new stack by copying an existing one. Not me literally duplicating a whole stack 💅

And it's not a half-copy situation either — all the pins and properties from the existing stack get copied over to the new one too. Everything comes with her. ✨

Lowkey important: the new stack must not already exist. She's gotta be brand new, no reusing names, no cap. 🚫

If you wanna make a new empty stack instead, that's the new command's whole job. And if you just wanna change a stack's properties after it's been created, go talk to props. Different tasks, different queens. 👑

🎀 COMMAND ARGUMENTS 🎀

The two required arguments are the name of the source stack and the name of the target stack. Two names, both mandatory, no skipping. 🙈

Stack names have rules, bestie, so listen up: they must be alphanumeric, plus hyphens, underscores, and periods. That's the whole vibe. And ngl, they are not case-sensitive — so don't come for me about capitalization, she doesn't care. 🫶

💅 COMMAND OPTIONS 💅

  • --default — also mark the new stack as the default stack. Main character energy, immediately. 👑
  • --description=TEXT — use TEXT for the description of the stack. If you don't specify it, it defaults to 'Copy of stack STACK'. Honestly a solid auto-caption, ngl. 📝
  • -d TEXT — the short lil version of --description=TEXT, same job, fewer letters. Slay.
  • --lock — also lock the new stack to prevent future changes. This is useful for creating a read-only "tag" of a stack — like a little museum exhibit of how she looked at that moment. 🏛️ And don't stress, you can always use the lock or unlock commands at a later time. Options stay open. 🌈
