How to create STIG vulnerabilities files?


I am trying to create a new repo for Tomcat 9 STIG for work. I found a public repo that is that same and trying to mirror it: https://github.com/mitre/apache-tomcat-9.x-stig-baseline/tree/main

The part I am having trouble is, I am not sure how to convert the STIG I downloaded from the DoD website (https://public.cyber.mil/stigs/downloads/) into the individual vulnerabilities files. I tried creating a script to create the individual files but not having much luck.

The question here is, how do I create a STIG repo from scratch? Or possibly a github repo that shows how to convert the files? I have been searching for a little while but could not find anything.

UPDATED

I was able to finally get the control files generated using:

inspect_delta update profile -p <path to repo> -s <path to stig.xml>

The challenging part was the xml file had characters the command did not like and I had to manually edit the file.

My next question is, are the all files under control dir need to be manually edit for each check?
