  • Gitea version (or commit ref): 1.12.6
  • Git version: 2.25.1
  • Operating system: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
  • Installed from binary download
  • Running on the command line
  • Database (use [x]):
    • PostgreSQL
    • MySQL
    • MSSQL
    • SQLite
  • Can you reproduce the bug at https://try.gitea.io:
    • Yes (provide example URL)
    • No
  • Log gist: N/A

Description

I was looking to list all users at the command line, which (according to the docs ), should be as easy as running gitea admin user list. However, when I do that, I get No help topic for 'user'.

Running gitea admin --help only lists the following subcommands:

  • create-user
  • change-password
  • repo-sync-releases
  • regenerate
  • auth
