Deploy one application

### Synopsis

Deploy one application

 Deploy one application based on local files or re-deploy an existing application. With the -n/--namespace flag, you can choose the location of the target application.

 To apply application from file, use the -f/--file flag to specify the application file location.

 To give a particular version to this deploy, use the -v/--publish-version flag. When you are deploying an existing application, the version name must be different from the current name. You can also use a history revision for the deploy and override the current application by using the -r/--revision flag.

```
