Create separate functions for each subcommand and a top-level one for creating the root command. The setupRootCmd() function sets up the root command and calls the setupX() function for each of its subcommands. This is a very simple code-shuffling commit. It's meant to make navigating the CLI creation easier by localising the creation and configuration of each subcommand.
Create separate functions for each subcommand and a top-level one for creating the root command (previously, this was bibBuildCobraCmdline, now renamed to match the image-builder root command setup from the previous commit). The setupRootCmd() function sets up the root command and calls the setupX() function for each of its subcommands. This is a very simple code-shuffling commit. It's meant to make navigating the CLI creation easier by localising the creation and configuration of each subcommand.
Subcommands don't need to support printing the command version.
Update the long description of the bootc-image-builder root command. Also remove the descriptions from the build command. I don't think they're necessary or very useful.
Rephrase a couple of error messages to remove typos and make the failure reason clearer.

Create separate functions for each subcommand and a top-level one for creating the root command for both image-builder and bootc-image-builder. The setupRootCmd() function sets up the root command and calls the setupX() function for each of its subcommands.
This is a very simple code-shuffling commit. It's meant to make navigating and reading the CLI creation easier by localising the creation and configuration of each subcommand, making it much clearer which flags apply where, and when things are shared by appearing one level higher in the callstack.
I started this while exploring the code path duplication between image-builder and bootc-image-builder. I wanted to get this merged into main before I move on to more substantial refactoring work.
