This tool fetches the latest Raspberry PI images from the officialsources and keeps it in a local cache. You can then burn the image to SDcard from the cached copy.
Using the tool allows you to script PI installs using the latest imagesand prevents unfortunate mishaps when writing it to the SD card.
All downloads are kept in local XDG specified cache directory,~/.cache/pibake by default.
New images have new names so old versions are kept until manuallydeleted from the cache.
This means the images are always at hand and you can update your localcopies when and if required.
