In YAML, you can assign an alias to anchor alternatives by using the ampersand (&) character to create an anchor for the alternative, and then using the asterisk (*) character to refer to the anchor with an alias. Here is an example:
# Define a sequence of alternatives
my_sequence:
- &first_option This is the first option
- &second_option This is the second option
# Create an alias for the first option
my_alias: *first_option
# Use the second option directly
another_option: *second_option
In this example, my_sequence
contains two alternatives, each anchored with an identifier. my_alias
is then created as an alias for the first alternative using the *
syntax, and another_option
is defined directly as an alias for the second alternative.
