+`repomanage` prints newest or older packages in a repository specified by <path> for easy piping to xargs or similar programs. In case <path> doesn't contain a valid repodata, it is searched for rpm packages which are then used instead.
+If the repodata are present, `repomanage` uses them as the source of truth, it doesn't verify that they match the present rpm packages. In fact, `repomanage` can run with just the repodata, no rpm packages are needed.
-In order to work correctly with modular packages <path> has to contain repodata with modular metadata. If modular content is present `repomanage` prints packages from newest or oldest versions of each stream in addition to newest or oldest non-modular packages.
