Installing and setting up a repository

There are packages available in the rpm-ostree COPR; you can also
just "sudo make install" it.

Running rpm-ostree
------------------
The core "rpm-ostree" takes as input a "treefile". There is a demo
one in `src/demo-treefile.json`.
# rpm-ostree sometreefile.json
All this does is use yum to download RPMs from the referenced repos,
and commit the result to the OSTree repository, using the ref named by
`ref`.
You can export `/srv/rpm-ostree/repo` via any static webserver.
Running the autobuilder
-----------------------
The autobuilder instead takes as input a `products.json` which
generates multiple treefiles. Try this:
# ln -s /path/to/rpm-ostree.git/fedostree/products.json .
# rpm-ostree-autobuilder autobuilder
That will automatically poll every hour for changes in the RPMs
referenced by the products.json file, commit them to the
/srv/rpm-ostree/repo, and generate cached disk images in
/srv/rpm-ostree/images.
