[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#958734: npm2deb: Man-pages don't document subcommands

Package: npm2deb
Version: 0.3.0-3
Severity: important

I am trying to use npm2deb to package bitwarden, and I cant find the documentation
for the subcommands.  'man npm2deb' yields the manpage for npm, which states the
subcommands (ie, create, itp, license), but doesnt give the flags they take.
I can tell the subcommands take flags, but I can't find any manpages on
what those flags do.  Calls to 'man npm2deb create' tell me that no manpage
exists for create: 'man -aw npm2deb' shows only one manpage, the (rather
short) one for npm2deb.

If you need someone to transfer the docs from another location to manpage
format, I can do that: just point me to where it is documented and I'll form
a patch.
