From cdd621963c4e1c1a4499f7a30623eac425195b3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Pursehouse Date: Tue, 7 May 2013 14:37:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Update documentation of the create-account command The documentation states that the command is used for creating user accounts for batch/role access. However this is not always the case; it is possible to create an account for a real person with an email address and name. Update the documentation to say that if the account is created without an email address, it may only be used for batch/role access.
