help:describe should be way more helpful when no arguments are provided -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MPH-29 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPH-29 Project: Maven 2.x Help Plugin Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Dan Fabulich Right now if you "mvn help:describe" with no further arguments you get an error: "You must either specify 'groupId' and 'artifactId', or a valid 'plugin' parameter." The people who are using help:describe don't necessarily know how help:describe works yet; if they did, they might be clever enough to use "mvn help:describe -Dplugin=help -Dmojo=describe" to figure out how help:describe works. This error message should be more like a paragraph long, and should include valid working examples. It could be copied from the apt doc for the help plugin. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
