Description

Type:

Enhancement(ish)

Severity:

Pedantic

Description:

ipfs swarm peers is misnamed, it should be ipfs swarm conns (it prints connections). We should:

  1. Introduce the new command.
  2. Deprecate the old one and hide it (but don't actually remove it).

Supersedes #4104 (would break too much)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Create a new 'ipfs swarm conns' command that mirrors 'ipfs swarm peers', then mark the old command as deprecated and hide it from help output.
