Hi!
The following options lack (full) documentation in the manual pages:
git-am:
--patch-format
--rerere-autoupdate
git-bisect:
next subcommand
git-commit:
--null
--interactive
git-notes copy:
--for-rewrite
git-submodule update:
--init
git-config:
--local
git-reflog expire:
-n, --dry-run
git-reflog delete:
-n, --dry-run
git-repack:
--quiet
git-cherry:
--abbrev
git-fsck:
-v
git-rerere:
--rerere-autoupdate
git-verify-tag:
-v, --verbose
git-svn init | fetch | clone | rebase | dcommit:
--no-auth-cache
--config-dir
git-svn fetch | clone | rebase | dcommit:
--noMetadata
--useSvmProps
--useSvnsyncProps
--log-window-size
--no-checkout
git-svn fetch | rebase | dcommit:
--fetch-all, --all
git-svn dcommit:
-C, --copy-similarity
git-svn log:
--color
--pager
--non-recursive
git-svn show-ignore | mkdirs:
-r, --revision
git-svn commit-diff:
-m, --message
-F, --file
-r, --revision
git-index-pack:
--pack_header
git-merge-file:
--marker-size
--diff3
git-pack-objects:
--reflog
--keep-unreachable
--unpack-unreachable
git-ls-files:
--resolve-undo
git-send-pack:
--mirror
--stateless-rpc
--helper-status
git-receive-pack:
--advertise-refs
--stateless-rpc
git-upload-pack:
--advertise-refs
--stateless-rpc
git-mailinfo:
--no-inbody-headers
Furthermore, the fact that most commands take -h and --help is
undocumented, but perhaps not of any real importance.
I would provide patches to the documentation, but most of these
options are beyond my grasp of Git.

Intentional, cf. 6956f85 (notes: implement helpers needed for note
copying during rewrite, 2010-03-12).

It's actually in gitcli(7).

"--init" is documented in the synopsis and under the "init" and "update"
commands. The only shortcoming is that the "--init" option isn't quoted
properly and thus doesn't get decorated like other options in the html
pages, is that what you mean?

While that’s true, It’s not documented under the OPTIONS header.
