The help text of the "project" command in xfs_quota says:

"A managed tree must be setup initially using the -c option with a project."

This is not correct: the -s option (as opposed to -c) will set up a
managed tree.

To reproduce:

root@bwp-249-8:~# xfs_quota -x
xfs_quota> help project

[..snip..]
A managed tree must be setup initially using the -c option with a
project.
[..snip..]

Trivial patch attached.
