$ repo.py --init

$ repo.py --init repo/

---

• Create a TUF repository in the current working directory. A cryptographic key is not created nor set for each top-level role.

• Create a TUF repository with consistent snapshots enabled. If enabled, all target filenames have their hash prepended.

$ repo.py --init --consistent_snapshots
