True. the "goals" could be explained. Current goal was to offer "functionally 
equivalent" capabilities as they were on mvn3, plus decrypt (as in mvn3 you 
could not decrypt). And the init and diag are here to help setup.

> mvnenc --enc has no help

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8423
>             Project: Maven
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.0-rc-1
>            Reporter: James Nord
>            Priority: Minor
>
> the options to `mvnenv --enc` are undocumented in the CLI.
>  
> h3. steps to reproduce
>  * run {{mvnenc}} to work out what you need to do to setup password encrption
>  * note you are prompted to run {{mvnenc -h}} to get help as the options are 
> not correct
>  * inspect the help
>  * note that {{--enc}} is listed but sub options are not
>  * run `mvnenc --enc -h` to try and get more info
> h3. Expected results
>  * you get some more help about the sepcific options to mvn --enc
> h3. Actual results
>  * you get the generic help page
> h4. Notes
> {{mvnenc.cmd -enc}} gives you some goals (?!) to run and tells you to run -h. 
>  but I have to infer what these goals do 
> the same also applies for the goals... eg `mvnenc --enc init` will fail when 
> run again and then reveal the existance of the `-force` flag which is not 
> discoverable by other means
