NAME

       umoci init - Create a new OCI image layout

SYNOPSIS

       umoci init --layout=image

DESCRIPTION

       Creates a new OCI image layout. The new OCI image does not contain any new references or
       blobs, but those can be created through the use of umoci-new(1), umoci-tag(1),
       umoci-repack(1) and other similar commands.

OPTIONS

       The global options are defined in umoci(1).

       --layout=image
         The path where the OCI image layout will be created. The path must not exist
         already or umoci-init(1) will return an error.

EXAMPLE

       The following creates a brand new OCI image layout and then creates a blank tag for
       further manipulation with umoci-repack(1) and umoci-config(1).

              % umoci init --layout image
              % umoci new --image image:tag
