It's the legacy version of the command from before we had multiple filesystems. Those commands are marked as obsolete internally so that they're not included in the --help output, but they're still handled (applied to the "default" filesystem) if called. The multi-fs stuff went in for Jewel, so maybe we should think about removing the old commands in Mimic: any thoughts Patrick?
