sqitch...t-usage(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

sqitch-checkout-usage — it's the usage statement for Sqitch checkout, bestie. literally just the whole "how do I even run this" moment 💅

---

✨ USAGE ✨

okay so here's the shape of it, no cap:

sqitch checkout [options] [<database>] <branch>

that's it. that's the vibe. [options] goes first, then the optional <database>, then the <branch> which is not optional, she's the main character 👑

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

every single one, in order, let's go 🦋

• -t --target <target> — the database you're connecting to, aka who we're pulling up on 💖
• --mode <mode> — the reversion mode for when a deploy fails. your choices are all, tag, or change — pick your fighter ✨
• --verify — run the verify scripts after deploying each change. yes ma'am, we checking our work 🫶
• --no-verify — actually no, do not run the verify scripts. trust fall 🙈
• -s --set <key=value> — set a database client variable 🌸
• -r --set-revert <key=value> — set a database client revert variable 🧚
• -e --set-deploy <key=value> — set a database client deploy variable 🌈
• --log-only — log the changes but don't actually run them. all vibes, zero commitment 💀
• --lock-timeout <timeout> — how many seconds to wait for the target lock before you get impatient ⭐
• -y — disables the prompt before reverting. skipping the "are you sure bestie" moment entirely 😭
• --registry <registry> — the registry schema or database 👑
• --db-client <path> — path to the engine's command-line client 🍓
• -d --db-name <name> — the database name 💜
• -u --db-user <user> — the database user name 🎀
• -h --db-host <host> — the database server host name 🌸
• -p --db-port <port> — the database server port number 🔥
• -f --plan-file <file> — path to a deployment plan file ✨

---

ngl bestie, -y is giving danger — it literally disables the prompt before reverting. know what you're doing before you flex that one 💅
