Unpublish a duplicate dat about datbase

[joehand]

(Not tested but...) can you run dat unpublish --name pagecounts-ez ?

[joehand]

Oh nope, that won't work. If you cd data-dir and then dat unpublish it will unpublish whatever name is in the dat.json file. So you can set it to the one you want to unpublish then run it. If that makes sense... ?

Sorry, this should be more straightforward!

Ok, I will try doing that, but I would like to point out that at the moment dat unpublish is undocumented.

I have issues with dat unpublish (it's throwing errors at me), I will investigate and open a separate bug report if needed.
