fossa init

The fossa init command creates examples of the following files if they do not exist in the current working directory:

• .fossa.yml: fossa-cli Configuration file
• fossa-deps.yml: File for stubbing and manually providing dependencies

Note that both the .fossa.yml and fossa-deps.yml files are optional. They allow for more specificity on how fossa-cli performs dependency analysis, but they are not required for fossa-cli usage.
