+
+Trac is distributed with a powerful command-line configuration tool. This tool can be used  to configure and customize your Trac-installation to better fit your needs.
+
+Some of those operations can also be performed via the ''Admin'' web interface, an updated version of the [http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/WebAdmin WebAdmin] plugin now integrated within Trac (since version 0.11).
+
+== Usage ==
+
+You can get a comprehensive list of the available options, commands and sub-commands by invoking `trac-admin` with the `help` command:.
+{{{
+trac-admin help
+}}}
+
+Unless you're executing the `help`, `about` or `version` sub-commands, you'll need to specify the path to the TracEnvironment that you want to administer as the first argument, for example:
+{{{
+trac-admin /path/to/projenv wiki list
+}}}
+
+== Interactive Mode ==
+
+When passing the environment path as the only argument, `trac-admin` starts in interactive mode.
+Commands can then be executed on the selected environment using the prompt, which offers tab-completion
+(on non-Windows environments, and when the Python `readline` module is available) and automatic repetition of the last command issued.
+
+Once you're in interactive mode, you can also get help on specific commands or subsets of commands:
+
+For example, to get an explanation of the `resync` command, run:
+{{{
+> help resync
+}}}
+
+To get help on all the Wiki-related commands, run:
+{{{
+> help wiki
+}}}
+
+== Full Command Reference ==
+
+[[TracAdminHelp()]]
+
+=== Notes ===
+
+The `initenv` also supports an extra `--inherit` option, which can be used to specify the `[inherit] file` option at environment creation time so that only the options ''not'' already specified in the global configuration file will be written in the conf/trac.ini file of the newly created environment.
+See TracIni#GlobalConfiguration.
+
+Note that in version 0.11 of Trac, `initenv` lost an extra last argument `<templatepath>`, which was used in previous versions to point to the `templates` folder. If you are using the one-liner '`trac-admin /path/to/trac/ initenv <projectname> <db> <repostype> <repospath>`' in the above and getting an error that reads ''''`Wrong number of arguments to initenv: 4`'''', then this is because you're using a `trac-admin` script from an '''older''' version of Trac.
