  # List GitRepository sources and their status
  flux get sources git

  # Trigger a GitRepository source reconciliation
  flux reconcile source git flux-system

  # Export GitRepository sources in YAML format
  flux export source git --all > sources.yaml

  # Create a Kustomization for deploying a series of microservices
  flux create kustomization webapp-dev \

    --path="./deploy/webapp/" \
    --prune=true \
    --interval=5m \
    --health-check="Deployment/backend.webapp" \

    --health-check-timeout=2m

  # Trigger a git sync of the Kustomization's source and apply changes
  flux reconcile kustomization webapp-dev --with-source

  # Suspend a Kustomization reconciliation
  flux suspend kustomization webapp-dev

  # Export Kustomizations in YAML format
  flux export kustomization --all > kustomizations.yaml

  # Resume a Kustomization reconciliation
  flux resume kustomization webapp-dev

  # Delete a Kustomization
  flux delete kustomization webapp-dev
