Public bug reported:
The nova-manage command exposes the action_args options during the usage
output for command.
E.g.
$ nova-manage network modify -h
usage: nova-manage network modify [-h] [--fixed_range <x.x.x.x/yy>]
[--project <project name>] [--host <host>]
[--disassociate-project]
[--disassociate-host]
[action_args [action_args ...]]
positional arguments:
action_args
<snip>
This can cause confusion as users naturally expect there to be more
"actions" on commands like "modify". Even in straightforward cases, this
positional argument leaks into usage.
$ nova-manage db version -h
usage: nova-manage db version [-h] [action_args [action_args ...]]
positional arguments:
action_args
Please consider suppressing documentation on action_args. In addition,
expose the __doc__ strings for these functions, which is done in the
nova command.
