452    Arguments:

454        example:
455            ./x.py run src/tools/bump-stage0
456        At least a tool needs to be called.")]

466x.py setup creates a `bootstrap.toml` which changes the defaults for x.py itself,
467as well as setting up a git pre-push hook, VS Code config and toolchain link.
468Arguments:
469    This subcommand accepts a 'profile' to use for builds. For example:
470        ./x.py setup library
471    The profile is optional and you will be prompted interactively if it is not given.
472    The following profiles are available:
473{}
474    To only set up the git hook, editor config or toolchain link, you may use
475        ./x.py setup hook
476        ./x.py setup editor
477        ./x.py setup link", Profile::all_for_help("        ").trim_end()))]
478    Setup {
479        /// Either the profile for `bootstrap.toml` or another setup action.
