Bug #5346: puppetca doc error
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5346

Author: Ben -
Status: Needs more information
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Nigel Kersten
Category: 
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.3
Keywords: 
Branch: 


the puppetca man page needs updating to include the new --clean behavior of 
revoking cert.

2.6.3 revokes w/ the --clean option

    $ puppetca --clean server.puppetlabs.com
    notice: Revoked certificate with serial 260
    notice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::Certificate server.puppetlabs.com at 
'/var/lib/puppet/ssl/ca/signed/server.puppetlabs.com.pem'
    notice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::Certificate server.puppetlabs.com at 
'/var/lib/puppet/ssl/certs/server.puppetlabs.com.pem'

The puppetca man page states

    This is useful when rebuilding hosts, since new
    certificate signing requests will only be honored if puppet
    cert does not have a copy of a signed certificate for that
    host. The certificate of the host remains valid.

PS> I prefer the old behavior.  The --revoke option should not be implied w/ 
--clean.
