## gittuf trust apply

Validate and apply changes from policy-staging to policy

### Synopsis

The 'apply' command validates and applies changes from the policy-staging area to the repository's policy. It is used to make staged policy updates effective and can optionally commit the policy change into the RSL locally.

```
gittuf trust apply [flags]
```

### Options

```
  -h, --help         help for apply
      --local-only   indicate that the policy must be committed into the RSL locally
```

### Options inherited from parent commands

```
      --create-rsl-entry             create RSL entry for policy change immediately (note: the RSL will not be synced with the remote)
      --no-color                     turn off colored output
      --profile                      enable CPU and memory profiling
      --profile-CPU-file string      file to store CPU profile (default "cpu.prof")
      --profile-memory-file string   file to store memory profile (default "memory.prof")
  -k, --signing-key string           signing key to use to sign root of trust (path to SSH key, "fulcio:" for Sigstore)
      --verbose                      enable verbose logging
```
