Usage

The build is ordinarily run with Github Actions by manually pushing a tag to the repo. The tag should look something like edk2-stable202211-r1. The first part, edk2-stable202211, should match a tag in the edk2 repo. The -r1 at the end is so that we can do multiple releases of the same edk2 tag without overwriting previous ones (e.g. if we realize later we need to modify a build flag).

The build can be run locally with:

cargo run -- [--container-cmd <cmd>] [--create-release] <tag>
