The listing for the --clear option in the documentation is outdated. This is from the actual current 3.5 usage text:

  --clear               Delete the contents of the environment directory if it
                        already exists, before environment creation.

Thanks for the report, Dan. Most of the docs has already been updated in c3c188a0325a. I've updated the remaining ones.
