Merge branch 'asciidoc' into working
We're getting close to release, so might as well do this now so people can actually update some of our documentation.

+Synopsis
+--------
+repo-add <path-to-db> [--force] <package> ...
+
+repo-remove <path-to-db> <packagename> ...
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+repo-add and repo-remove are two scripts to help build a package database for
+packages built with manlink:makepkg[8] and installed with manlink:pacman[8].
+
+repo-add will update a package database by reading a built package file.
+Multiple packages to add can be specified on the command line.
+
+repo-remove will update a package database by removing the package name
+specified on the command line. Multiple packages to remove can be specified
+on the command line.
+
+
+Options
+-------
+*--force* (repo-add only)::
+ Add a force entry to the sync database, which tells pacman to skip version
+ number comparison and update the package regardless. This flag can be
+ specified in the middle of the command line, with any packages listed
+ before the flag being added as normal entries, and any specified after
+ being marked as force upgrades.
