Subject: Suggestion: "man git clone"
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 17:11:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48ACB29C.7000606@zytor.com> (raw)
Given the recent change of "git-foo" to "git foo", it would be really
nice if one could type, for example:
man git clone
and actually get the man page for the git clone command. There are
quite a few other pieces of software which also could benefit from that
kind of indirection.
Right now the above command shows the man page git(1) followed by
clone(2), which I believe has be classified as utterly useless behaviour...
