The \cb{bpkg} configuration itself is a build system configuration; see build system driver (\l{b(1)}) \cb{create} meta-operation for details. Unless the \cb{--existing|-e} or \cb{--wipe} option is specified, \cb{cfg-create} expects the configuration directory to be empty or to not exist (in which case it will be created). By default, the configuration created with the first form loads the \cb{config}, \cb{test}, \cb{dist}, and \cb{install} modules. However, additional modules and, if required, their configuration variables can be specified as the \cb{cfg-create} arguments. For example: \ bpkg create cxx config.cxx=clang++ config.install.root=/usr/local \ By default, \cb{bpkg} appends \cb{.config} to the names of the modules that you specify so that only their configurations are loaded. You can override this behavior by specifying the period (\cb{.}) after the module name. You can also instruct \cb{bpkg} to use the optional module load by prefixing the module name with the question mark (\cb{?}). For example: \ bpkg create cxx. \"?cli\" \ " } class cfg_create_options: common_options { "\h|CFG-CREATE OPTIONS|" dir_path --directory|-d (".") { "", "Create the configuration in rather than in the current working directory." } bool --existing|-e { "Initialize a \cb{bpkg} configuration based on an existing build system configuration." } bool --wipe { "Wipe the configuration directory clean before creating the new configuration. For safety, this option requires that you specify the configuration directory explicitly with \cb{--directory|-d}." } }; " \h|DEFAULT OPTIONS FILES| See \l{bpkg-default-options-files(1)} for an overview of the default options files. For the \cb{cfg-create} command the search start directory is the parent directory of the new configuration. The following options files are searched for in each directory and, if found, loaded in the order listed: \ bpkg.options bpkg-cfg-create.options \ The following \cb{cfg-create} command options cannot be specified in the default options files: \ --directory|-d --wipe \ " }
