## Tips for CI setup
Cerbero can split its bootstrap and package commands into stages which can be
useful for CI setups. For example, you might want to do any system setup (such
as installing packages) and also fetch all sources to cache them when building
your CI image:
```sh
$ ./cerbero-uninstalled fetch-bootstrap
$ ./cerbero-uninstalled fetch-package gstreamer-1.0
# This will use "sudo"
$ ./cerbero-uninstalled bootstrap --system=yes --toolchains=no --build-tools=no --offline
```
Then inside your CI job, you will not need root for the remaining steps:
```sh
$ ./cerbero-uninstalled bootstrap --system=no --toolchains=yes --build-tools=yes --offline
# When building a non-tagged commit, this will update the git repos for all gstreamer recipes
$ ./cerbero-uninstalled fetch-package gstreamer-1.0
$ ./cerbero-uninstalled package gstreamer-1.0 --offline
```

## Enabling Optional Features with Variants
Cerbero controls optional and platform-specific features with `variants`. You
