===============

Name
----

tcar-prepare - Prepare the repository workplace.

Synopsis
--------

*centos-art.sh prepare /path/to/your/workplace*

Description
-----------

When you install The CentOS Artwork Repository in your workstation, it
only provides the source files and documentation you need to produce
final content but no way to produce final content inside the location
it was installed. To produce final content using the source files
provided by The CentOS Artwork Repository you need to create a
directory in your workstation where you can store the files you
produce and the configuration files provided by the installed
repository.  This directory is known as the ``repository workplace''
and you should create it using the *tcar-prepare* command.

The *tcar-prepare* module creates the workplace in the location you
specified as argument in the command-line. Inside the workplace, there
is one directory for each visual manifestation The CentOS Project is
made of. Each directory inside the workplace might exist to organize
other directories or storing final content. The directories storing
final content hold one configuration file describing how the final
content is produced inside of it. The configuration files inside the
workplace are symbolic links to configuration files inside The CentOS
Artwork Repository installed in your workstation.

The first time you create the workplace using the *tcar-prepare*
module, it doesn't include images required to brand other images
(e.g., The CentOS Symbol and The CentOS Type). This is something you
need to do in order for images requiring brand information to be
rendered as they are expected. Rendering images related to brands
might consume some time but it is something that needs to be done just
once, unless variations to brand information be introduced to The
CentOS Artwork Repository, in which case it would be required to
render them again to propagate the changes introduced to brand
information the next time images requiring them be rendered.
