bootc − Deploy and transactionally in−place with bootable container images

SYNOPSIS

bootc [−h|−−help] [−V|−−version] <subcommands>

DESCRIPTION

Deploy and transactionally in−place with bootable container images.

Once installed, whether directly via ‘bootc install‘ (executed as part of a container) or via another mechanism such as an OS installer tool, further updates can be pulled and ‘bootc upgrade‘.
