## `update.sh`

This is the main script used to generate the `README.md` files for each image. The generated file is committed along with the files used to generate it (see below on what customizations are available). When a new image is added that is not under the `docker-library` namespace on GitHub, a new entry must be added to the `otherRepos` array in this script. Accepted arguments are which image(s) you want to update and no arguments to update all of them.
