Subject: [PATCH 2/2 resend] Documentation: tutorial: add information about "git help" at the beginning
Date: Sun, 16 Nov 2008 18:10:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081116181006.c237f5e2.chriscool@tuxfamily.org> (raw)
Talking about "git help" is useful because it has a few more
features (like when using it without arguments or with "-a") and
it may work on non unix like platforms.
Also add a few links to git-help(1) in "See also" sections.
