Description

Include required information

Hi guys,

First off goes my thanks to dev and particularly for documentation you make - not all devs get(for some inexplicable reason) how crucial man pages are to the all the rest of us(whole-world - devs =)
I run my Syncthing on Centos and I'm not sure if it's just distro's package issues but in case it's not - then please do with the 'cli' subcommand what you have done with the rest of 'Syncthing': Give it a nice juicy man page!!!

Please be sure to include at least:

  • what problem your new feature would solve
  • how or why you think it is generally useful (i.e., not just for you)
  • what alternatives or workarounds you considered
