Description Marius Vollmer 2016-03-09 13:10:27 UTC
Description of problem:

Typing "nmcli c m ..." used to mean "nmcli connection modify", but now it means "nmcli connection monitor ...", I think.  That might trip up some lazy/cute people who use this in scripts, like me.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-1.2.0-0.6.beta2.fc24.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. nmcli c m TEST ipv4.method link-local

Actual results:
nmcli 'hangs'.

Expected results:
nmcli executes "connection modify".
