info¶
vb info [VERSION | REPOSITORY_FILENAME] [OPTIONS]
Description¶
With no arguments, provide information about the current tree. If an argument is specified, provide information about the object in the repository of the current tree that the argument refers to. Or if the argument is the name of a repository, show information about that repository.
If the argument is a repository name, then the --verbose option shows
all known check-out locations for that repository and all URLs used
to access the repository. The --verbose is (currently) a no-op if
the argument is the name of an object within the repository.
Use the finfo command to get information about a specific file in a check-out.
Options¶
- -R, --repository REPO¶
Extract info from repository REPO
- -v, --verbose¶
Show extra information about repositories
- --key KEY¶
Show only information for the specified key
