The main script, autopkg_party.sh has a number of functions:

1. Run a specified list of overrides
2. Run a specific override by name
3. Sync a munki repo up/down from an S3 bucket
4. Setup autopkg configuration
5. Clone a list of autopkg repos

It is self contained and does have a usage/help dialog:
