Is there a list of SSU commands available - like a manpage?

I've used 'ar' 'dr' and 'ld' - I'd like to see a complete list of functions and parameters.

I wanted to delete a repo. I tried 'devel-su pkcon repo-remove repo-name' and got "Command failed: A repo id and autoremove required" which puzzled me. I didn't try adding 'autoremove'!

At the moment I have several disabled repos, which is OK but I'd like to get rid of them.

Thanks.

What exactly does 'ssu ur' do? I added a repo, did 'ssu ur' but 'pkcon install' didn't find the package. I had to do 'pkcon refresh' after which install worked.

If you study the output of ssu --help, you'll see that ssu ur Updates Repository files and as a result, when pkcon install did not find the package, then you need to refresh, then as you saw, it works.

You can also use openrepos app Storeman to remove repos.

Yes, I read that. But update what in these files - if not the packages therein?

If you don't do ssu ur after ssu ra, as seems often to be recommended, what won't work?
