plugin XEP-0277: post repeating implementation: Repeating a post as specified at https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0277.html#repeat is now implemented. On sending, one can either use the new `repeat` method (or the bridge `mbRepeat` one from frontends) to repeat any XEP-0277 item, or use the field `repeated` in microblog data's `extra`. This field must mainly contains the `by` field with JID of repeater (the "author*" field being filled with original author metadata), and the `uri` field with link (usually `xmpp:` one) to repeated item. When receiving a repeated item, the same `repeated` field is filled. rel 370

=============================
identity: identity management
=============================

Identity use several XMPP extensions (like vcards) to retrieve or set informations about
an entity. For now it's really basic and only nickname and avatar are managed.

get
===

Retrieve informations about the identity behind an XMPP entity. You only have to specify
the jid of the entity, and you'll get (if set) his/her/its nickname and data about the
avatar.

When available, cached values are returned by defaut. If you want to ignore the cache, use
the ``--no-cache`` option (of course this can result in more network requests).

example
--------

Get identity information about an entity::

  $ li identity get somebody@example.org

set
===

Set identity data to the server, using various XMPP extensions. So far, you can only
change the nickname of an entity using ``-n, --nick`` or or more times

example
-------

Set 2 nicknames for default profile::

  $ li identity set -n toto -n titi
