Is there any reason to use this repo over `bosh create-env` ? #131

There are some prominent links[1] to this repo and I'm concerned that it should be mentioned that the bosh-init tool has basically been incorporated into bosh-cli v2, so we should fairly prominently in the README link to the official docs for that workflow[2].

I'm happy to PR the README with this notice, but was hoping for discussion to understand if folks still find this tool crucial and why. We wouldn't want to dissuade people from using this tool if there are use-cases that are still exclusively served by bosh-init

No, this repository should not be used, and it is not being maintained. Consumers should switch to the functionally-equivalent bosh create-env like you mentioned, if they haven't already.

Made #153372223 to update this, but you might beat us to it with a pull request.

I'll reserve the right to PR if I see folks getting confused in the short term, but otherwise it should just go into the queue.
