+pkgctl-version-setup(1)
+=======================
+
+Name
+----
+pkgctl-version-setup - Automatically detect and setup a basic nvchecker config
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+pkgctl version setup [OPTIONS] [PKGBASE...]
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This subcommand automates the creation of a basic nvchecker(1) configuration
+file by analyzing the source array specified in the PKGBUILD(1) file of a
+package. This command intelligently detects various platforms and APIs (e.g.,
+GitHub, GitLab, PyPI) used by the package sources and generates a corresponding
+`.nvchecker.toml` configuration based on its best guess.
+
+This is particularly useful for initializing nvchecker(1) settings for a
+package without manually crafting the `.nvchecker.toml` file. It simplifies the
+process of setting up version checks, especially when transitioning a package's
+monitoring from one source platform to another or starting version checks for a
+new package.
+
+If no `PKGBASE` is specified, the command defaults to using the current working
+directory.
+
+To obtain a list of supported sources and their expected URL formats, please
+consult the sources section.
+
+Options
+-------
+
+*-f, --force*::
+	Overwrite existing nvchecker(1) configuration
+
+*--prefer-platform-api*::
+	Prefer platform specific GitHub/GitLab API over git for complex cases
+
+*--url* 'URL'::
+	Derive check target from the given URL instead of the source array entries
+
+
+*--no-check*::
+	Do not run pkgctl-version-check(1) after setup
+
+*-h, --help*::
+	Show a help text
