Bug ID: 2904
Summary: ssh-keygen -m is accepted also for key generation
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 7.7p1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: Documentation

Reporter: [email protected]
Then -m switch was used only for the key import and export, but for
some time, it can be also used for key generation. This is important
mostly after the key format change to OpenSSH when one needs a
interoperability with tools not supporting this format.
* Add the -m to the first synopsis line:
ssh-keygen [-q] [-m key_format] [-b bits] [-t dsa | ecdsa | ed25519
| rsa] [-N new_passphrase] [-C comment] [-f output_keyfile]
* Change the description of the -m option to
Specify a key format for the -i (import), -e (export) conversion
options or -m (key generation) option.
