The sync command is the core operation of Quad-Ops. It performs a complete synchronization cycle:
- Repository Updates - Clone new repositories or pull latest changes
- File Discovery - Scan for Docker Compose files in configured locations
- Conversion - Generate Podman Quadlet units from compose configurations
