+
+Call stack when running `kustomize build`, with link to code.
+
+## Run build
+
+* [RunBuild](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/blob/c7d78970fb86782dbdded3a93944b774f826071f/kustomize/internal/commands/build/build.go#L121)

+  // file, perform the kustomization it represents, and return the resulting resources.
