Rails3 beta rails generate -h does nothing, though should generate help message according to usage

Reported by MOE | February 6th, 2010 @ 06:45 AM

Well, may be not should, but nice to have definitely, since the first thing to do when trying things out is to see the list of generators etc, so rails generate -h seems to be a natural choice for such a usecase...


moe@ingrid:/tmp/tryout$ rails generate -h
Could not find generator -h.
moe@ingrid:/tmp/tryout$ rails generate
Usage: rails generate GENERATOR [args] [options]

General options:
  -h, [--help]     # Print generators options and usage
(skipped)
