Got the two yqs mixed up
- With [`yq`](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq):
- ```shell
$ yq --yaml-output . file.json > file.yaml- ```
- `.` is a filter which is applied to the data, but since `.` just stands for the document root, this means that the data is passed through without modification.
`yq` is capable of rich document manipulation, but here we are doing just the most simple of operations.

- Note that this `yq` here is implemented in go. There's also a python project with the same name.
