Subject: [PATCH] git help: promote 'git help -av'
Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2018 19:47:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180922174707.16498-1-pclouds@gmail.com> (raw)

When you type "git help" (or just "git") you are greeted with a list
with commonly used commands and their short description and are
suggested to use "git help -a" or "git help -g" for more details.

"git help -av" would be more friendly and inline with what is shown
with "git help" since it shows list of commands with description as
well, and commands are properly grouped.
