Subject: [PATCH] Treat "stg --help cmd" and "stg help cmd" like "stg cmd --help"
Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2006 00:17:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1138339048.1801.3.camel@dv> (raw)

User's intention is perfectly clear if "-h", "--help" or "help" is
followed by a valid command - show help for that command.
