Set up some commands.

let comm1 = "head -n 1 /path/to/original.txt"
let comm2 = "cd /path/to/dir && rm -r dirname/*"
let comm3 = "docker build -f Dockerfile-test -t repo/name:tag . && docker push repo/name:tag"

let rslt = subp.shellCommand(comm1)
subp.shellCommand(comm2)

Passing the output to this function will return the stdout or
throw an error if there was one.
