Composer commands

Table 1 lists the composer commands.

Note: Command names and keywords can be entered in either uppercase or lowercase characters, and can be abbreviated to as few leading characters as are needed to uniquely distinguish them from each other. Some of the command names also have short forms.

However there are some abbreviations, such as v, that point to a specific command, version in this case, even though they do not uniquely identify that command in the list. This happens when the abbreviation is hard coded in the product and so mismatches in invoking the wrong command are automatically bypassed.
