Issue #12608 has been updated by Daniel Pittman. Status changed from Unreviewed to Rejected
Hey. That is an annoyance, I grant you, but it is fixed in the 2.7 release. Unless this is a regression from earlier releases on the 2.6 track we are unlikely to issue another release there just to address this problem. Even then, I don't know it is really worth the cost for something so far back on the release track. ---------------------------------------- Bug #12608: No help for puppet cert command. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12608#change-54564 Author: Taylor Judd Status: Rejected Priority: Low Assignee: Category: usability Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.13 Keywords: Branch: ## Summary ## When issuing the puppet cert command no help is available. At the very least this command should return a list of further arguments. Ideally a longer description with examples should be given. ### Problem: ### `[root@puppet ~]# puppet --version 2.6.13` `[root@puppet ~]# puppet cert No help available for puppet cert` ### Expected Result ### Something similar to the information returned when running describe: `[root@puppet ~]# puppet describe SYNOPSIS ======== Print help about puppet types on the console.
