This should be the output\nof [codeql database analyze](/en/code-security/reference/code-scanning/codeql/codeql-cli-manual/database-analyze) (or [codeql database interpret-results](/en/code-security/reference/code-scanning/codeql/codeql-cli-manual/database-interpret-results)) with `--format sarif-latest` for upload to github.com or\nthe appropriate supported format tag for GitHub Enterprise Server\ninstances (see [SARIF support for code scanning](/en/code-security/code-scanning/integrating-with-code-scanning/sarif-support-for-code-scanning) for\nSARIF versions supported by your release).\n\n#### `-o, --output=<file>`\n\n\\[Mandatory] Path where the merged SARIF file should be stored.\n\n### Common options\n\n#### `-h, --help`\n\nShow this help text.\n\n#### `-J=<opt>`\n\n\\[Advanced] Give option to the JVM running the command.\n\n(Beware that options containing spaces will not be handled correctly.)\n\n#### `-v, --verbose`\n\nIncrementally increase the number of progress messages printed.\n\n#### `-q, --quiet`\n\nIncrementally decrease the number of progress messages printed.\n\n#### `--verbosity=<level>`\n\n\\[Advanced] Explicitly set the verbosity level to one of errors,\nwarnings, progress, progress+, progress++, progress+++. Overrides `-v`\nand `-q`.\n\n#### `--logdir=<dir>`\n\n\\[Advanced] Write detailed logs to one or more files in the given\ndirectory, with generated names that include timestamps and the name of\nthe running subcommand.\n\n(To write a log file with a name you have full control over, instead\ngive `--log-to-stderr` and redirect stderr as desired.)\n\n#### `--common-caches=<dir>`\n\n\\[Advanced] Controls the location of cached data on disk that will\npersist between several runs of the CLI, such as downloaded QL packs and\ncompiled query plans. If not set explicitly, this defaults to a\ndirectory named `.codeql` in the user's home directory; it will be\ncreated if it doesn't already exist.\n\nAvailable since `v2.15.2`."}
