#Flags

Flags
NameShortTypePresenceEnvDescription
--auto-commit, --no-auto-commitbooloptionalAutomatically commit generated documentation pages and root files to git. Omitted, it commits; pass --no-auto-commit to leave them uncommitted
--version-overridestroptionalProject version to stamp into version-bearing generated content instead of the version currently recorded in the project manifest (VERSION, pyproject.toml or package.json). Release orchestrators pass the about-to-be-released version here so generated root files are not one release behind (generation runs before the version bump is committed)
