Much like git, you initialize your project directory by adding your deploy targets first.
Once you have one set you can view the active target with `atf target`. If you want to deploy
from there you just execute one of the deploy commands.
**Simple Setup Example**
# Add production
atf target add production vividboarder@mycompany.com MY_SECURITY_TOKEN
# Deploy to production
atf deploy project
# Add a sandbox
atf target add sandbox vividboarder@mycompany.com.sandbox MY_SECURITY_TOKEN --sandbox
# Switch active targets
atf target activate sandbox
# Deploy to sandbox
atf deploy project
More advanced documentation can be found by running any of the `help` commands.
atf help
atf deploy help
atf retrieve help
atf target help

Deploy List
-----------
Deploy list gives you an easy way to only deploy files that have changed. This works really well if you are
using some kind of version control.
It takes a file of the format:
src/classes/MyClass.cls
src/triggers/MyTrigger.trigger
You can generate a file like this using `git diff --no-commit-id --name-only` or possibly the script included
in the `examples` directory.
