The FMMT python tool is used for firmware files operation, which has
the Fv/FFs-based 'View'&amp;'Add'&amp;'Delete'&amp;'Replace' operation function:

1.Parse a FD(Firmware Device) / FV(Firmware Volume) / FFS(Firmware Files)
2.Add a new FFS into a FV file (both included in a FD file or not)
3.Replace an FFS in a FV file with a new FFS file
4.Delete an FFS in a FV file (both included in a FD file or not)
5.Extract the FFS from a FV file (both included in a FD file or not)

This version of FMMT Python tool does not support PEIM rebase feature,
this feature will be added in future update.

Currently the FMMT C tool is saved in edk2-staging repo, but its
quality and coding style can't meet the Edk2 quality, which is hard to
maintain (Hard/Duplicate Code; Regression bugs; Restrict usage).

The new Python version keeps same functions with origin C version. It
has higher quality and better coding style, and it is much easier to
extend new functions and to maintain.
