Undocumented xbps-src commands #29363

Closed ericonr closed 2 years ago

ericonr commented 3 years ago

These commands aren't in the help output. They should be removed or documented:

Duncaen commented 3 years ago

I don't think each of those commands need to be documented in the help/usage, its already pretty big and there is no point in knowing dbulk-dump from a users perspective who is not trying to build tooling around xbps-src. Same goes for the show-pkg-var they do the same thing as dbulk-dump but with a "looser" output format.

remove-destdir looks like just an alias for remove, I don't see the harm in keeping it for compatibility.

ericonr commented 3 years ago

I'm ok with keeping remove-destdir, but for the others it helps to have usage information as well as what the command does without having to read and understand code. Also helps with discoverability...
