+The `prefix_directives` mode converts the specified ikiwiki page from
+the old preprocessor directive syntax, requiring a space, to the new
+syntax, prefixed by '!'.

 
 Preprocessor directives which already use the new syntax will remain
 unchanged.

+# indexdb
+
+The `indexdb` mode handles converting a plain text `.ikiwiki/index` file to
+a binary `.ikiwiki/indexdb`. In this mode, you should specify the srcdir of
+the wiki as the second parameter. You do not normally need to run
+`ikiwiki-transition indexdb`; ikiwiki will automatically run it as
+necessary.
+
+# hashpassword
+
+The `hashpassword` mode forces any plaintext passwords stored in the
+`.ikiwiki/userdb` file to be replaced with password hashes. (The
+Authen::Passphrase perl module is needed to do this.) In this mode, you
+should specify the srcdir of the wiki as the second parameter. 
+
+If this is not done explicitly, a user's plaintext password will be
+automatically converted to a hash when a user logs in for the first time
+after upgrade to ikiwiki 2.48.
