+Firstly, we can see the ``zlib`` package, as ``libpng`` depends on it. The output is sorted by
 recipes as we passed with the `--order-by` argument; however, we might prefer to see it
 sorted by configurations instead. For that purpouse use the `--order-by` argument with
 value `configuration`.
 
+At the end of the json, after the ``order`` field, we see a ``profiles`` field, which contains the profile related command line arguments for the current "build-order". As in this case we didn't provide any arguments, it is empty. But if we used something like ``conan graph build-order ... -pr=default -s build_type=Debug > bo.json``, the ``args`` will contain those arguments (with json character escaping): ``"args": "-pr:h=\"default\" -s:h=\"build_type=Debug\""``
+
+
+Using ``--order-by=configuration`` we will get a different build-order format:
+

+When 2 or more "build-order" files are merged, the resulting merge contains a ``profiles`` section like:

+
+With the ``build_order_win`` and ``build_order_nix`` being the "build-order" filenames that were used as inputs to the merge, and which will be referenced in the ``filenames`` field of every ``package`` in the build order. This way, it is easier to obtain the necessary command line arguments to build a specific package binary in the build-order when building multiple configurations.
