SYNOPSIS bastille [-fx] bootstrap RELEASE bastille [-dx] TARGET update RELEASE bastille [-x] TARGET diff|resolve DESCRIPTION The bastille sub-command will bootstrap a tarball from RELEASE which can then be used to update the contents of /etc inside jails after per- forming an upgrade. bastille etcupdate [-fx] bootstrap RELEASE bootstrap Bootstrap the 'src' archives for RELEASE, then create a tarball from it. The tarball makes it much easier and faster to apply to jails. -f, --force Force a re-bootstrap of a release. -x, --debug Enable debug mode. bastille etcupdate [-dx] TARGET update RELEASE update Update the contents of /etc inside TARGET, using RELEASE as the base. RELEASE must first be boot- strapped. -d, --dry-run Show output, but do not apply. -x, --debug Enable debug mode. The RELEASE specified here is the release you want to use as the base of your TARGET /etc contents. bastille etcupdate [-x] TARGET diff|resolve diff Compare and show changes to /etc inside the TARGET. resolve Resolve any conflicts for /etc inside TARGET. Some- times when performing the bastille sub-command, it leaves some conflicts between the old and new files. Use this option to resolve these conflicts. -x, --debug Enable debug mode.
