Description

Filesystem-changing commands can be tested in an isolated view before applying them to the live system. The `try` tool helps administrators inspect what a command would modify, reducing risk during experiments or package-level troubleshooting.

Run `try` with the command you want to test. It uses filesystem isolation techniques, but dangerous commands still deserve care because kernel, network, or device effects may not be fully reversible.
