depot.py:
The exit ready option is being removed or at least undocumented?

Undocumented; although I need to mention the new pkgrepo utility in pkg.depotd.1m.txt. The goal is to get users to start using pkgrepo to perform administrative tasks that was the only real reason for --exit-ready's existence.

I'm not certain that's true. I thought it was for things like, "publish a whole bunch of packages, wait for catalog and index to be built, then exit." What's the new way of doing that?


pkg.depotd.1m.txt:
since we're changing almost all of this file anyway, can we change the
format slightly so that the offset isn't dependent on the length of the
longest option? I think something like what the grep man page (at least
on my system) does makes sense. It looks like:

<short option>, <long option>
<offset text description>

I'll pass for now; all of the man pages are supposed to be rewritten in a different format soon.

pkgrepo.1.txt:
Can pkgrepo set publisher-specific information?

Not technically; something for that will come with the next changeset when the repository format gets upgraded.

For the existing repository properties (or for v3 repos), you can use property/set-property.

Ok, then I guess --add-ca-cert will remain a depot operation until the next changeset?
