Tested in v1.13.
These commands don't work anymore:

get password
  -> ??: password
set password secret
  -> unknown config: password secret

This does work:

password secret
  -> password now: secret

I'm not sure that get password and set password were ever commands that we supported.

From memory, only password <new password> existed.

Whoever wrote those docs might have been confused with the guest password and assumed it worked the same, since you can in fact do:

get guest.password and set guest.password <new password>, but the admin password is restricted to being changed only. It can't be fetched via cli.

Will merge, thanks :)
