database in a project tree.

To avoid bit-rotted documentation, we do not describe all available
commands and options in this manpage.  Run ``be help`` for accurate
documentation.  See the `Bugs Everywhere Manual`_ for more detailed
documentation and tutorials.

BUGS

submit bugs directly using ``be``::

  Created bug with ID bea/abc
  $ be --repo http://bugs.bugseverywhere.org/ comment bea/abc
