Version information:0.4.10

Type:command shown on website but not available

Severity:

Description:

I noticed that ipfs diag net is supposed to recursively show the network on its usage, but it doesn't show up on my system, no manual, no help. So I am guessing its been removed?

Correct, it was a debug command used to get a view of the network as we were developing it. It was a DoS vector as it caused a recursive query to be sent through the entire system, and we decided that the danger it posed to the network was greater than the benefit it provided for debugging.
