NAME

kas-checkout - kas checkout plugin

SYNOPSIS

kas checkout [-h] [--skip STEP] [--force-checkout] [--update] [config]

DESCRIPTION

Checks out all necessary repositories and sets up the build directory as specified in the configuration file.

This plugin implements the kas checkout command.

When this command is executed, kas will checkout repositories and set up the build directory as specified in the chosen config file. This command is useful if you need to inspect the configuration or modify any of the checked out layers before starting a build.

For example, to setup the configuration described in the file kas-project.yml you could run:

kas checkout kas-project.yml
