Bug Description
[Impact]
In task 2.0 the calling syntax changed from 'task <cmd> <id>' to 'task <id> <cmd>'. However the directions for the task edit command weren't updated for the release.
[Development Fix]
This oversight was corrected in the upstream tree shortly after release.
A cherrypick of this fix was backported and uploaded to quantal.
Fixed in upstream commit c51b47269418ff9
[Stable Fix]
Since we carry the same version of task in quantal and precise, the same patch is proposed for precise.
[Test Case]
1. Enter at least one new task
2. Run 'task 1 edit'
3. Read the first line of directions
Broken Behavior:
`task 1 edit`, first line of the directions shows:
# The 'task edit <id>' command allows you to modify all aspects of a task
this is wrong; 'task edit <id>' will result in editing ALL tasks.
Fixed Behavior:
In task 2.0 the args are swapped so this should be:
# The 'task <id> edit' command allows you to modify all aspects of a task
Regression Potential:
None expected. The fix is upstream and is simple enough in review.
