Subject: Tiny bug report, interaction between alias and help
Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2008 09:27:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080119142750.GA9182@phenix.progiciels-bpi.ca> (raw)

Hi, git people.  (My first message here, please be kind!)

Page http://git.or.cz/#community says to report git bugs on this list.
This is a tiny bug for "git version 1.5.4.rc3.14.g44397-dirty".  If the
"bug" is inappropriate, please then consider this as a suggestion!  :-)

If, after "git config --global alias.st status", say, I try:

   git st --help

git then replies:

   No manual entry for git-st

It would be nice if --help was interacting better with aliases.

                                       Thanks for your attention,
