Subject: [PATCH 0/6] help: fix usage nits & bugs, completion shellscript->C
Date: Wed,  8 Sep 2021 17:24:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover-0.6-00000000000-20210908T151949Z-avarab@gmail.com> (raw)

This series fixes various bugs & edge cases in the "git help" command,
and improves and splits the internal-only "--completion-for-config"
option into two, and as a result can get rid of an awk/sort -u
pipeline in the bash completion.

This is all rather straightforward and boring, the first patch
mentions an interaction with my not-picked-up-by-Junio-yet series to
fix parse_options usage alignment at [1], but while the two strictly
speaking "semantically conflict" (in combination they'll produce
different results), the exact whitespace padding of "git help -h" is a
trivial enough issue that they can and should be considered
indepedently.
