Fixes #706
Add CLI reference for --force-clear-db, and mention it in checkpoint-start, network troubleshooting, and migrate-database so users can clear the beacon DB on startup instead of deleting it manually.
Note
Low Risk
Documentation-only changes, but they describe a destructive DB-wipe flag and could cause data loss if misused or misread.
Overview
Adds CLI documentation for the new
--force-clear-dboption (including env var and config-file forms) and warns that it permanently deletes the beacon chain DB on startup.Updates checkpoint sync, network troubleshooting, and manual DB migration docs to recommend clearing the beacon DB via
--force-clear-dbas an alternative to manually deletingbeacon/db, with small wording/formatting tweaks and an added reminder to avoid deleting validator slashing-protection data.Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 53d49c6. This will update automatically on new commits. Configure here.
