     The `seed` command, when no Repository ID (<rid>) is provided, will list the
     repositories being seeded.
 
-    When a Repository ID (<rid>) is provided it updates the seeding policy for

-    To delete a policy, use the `--delete` flag.
+    When a Repository ID (<rid>) is provided it updates or creates the seeding policy for

     When seeding a repository, a scope can be specified: this can be either `all` or
     `followed`. When using `all`, all remote nodes will be followed for that repository.
