Subject: [RFC PATCH] repoman man/repoman.1: Add "BEHAVIOR" section (fix bug
 650520)
To: [e-mail]

The manpage references "directory tree", but doesn't explicitly outline
the expected behavior when run anywhere above the package directory
level.

Exact name of section, location within the manpage, and/or wording open
to suggestions.

Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/650520
