Description of problem: Binary cscope-indexer is part of cscope package. I wanted to find out what is it for but it has not man page, it's not mentioned in cscope man page and when run with "-h" or "--help" it displays help for cd command. Please add manpage or usable help. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cscope-15.9-4.el8 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. cscope-indexer -h 2. cscope-indexer --help Actual results: 1. /usr/bin/cscope-indexer: line 120: cd: -h: invalid option cd: usage: cd [-L|[-P [-e]] [-@]] [dir] 1. cd: cd [-L|[-P [-e]] [-@]] [dir] Change the shell working directory. Change the current directory to DIR. The default DIR is the value of the HOME shell variable. <snip> Expected results: help for cscope-indexer is displayed.
cscope-indexer is really only meant to be used by the xcscope.el emacs module, but sure, we can add a help option. Note however, that running cscope -R achieves the same results.
Created attachment 1582614 [details] cscope-indexer with help option hows this?
gah, this missed 8.1, and I'm not able to file an errata for it. Moving to 8.2
