We implement a command called git-psuh which accept arguments, so let's
show that it accepts arguments in the doc and the usage string.
While at it, we need to prepare "a NULL-terminated array of usage strings",
not just "a NULL-terminated usage string".

The only change compared to he previous version is that "[<arg>...]" is
used instead of "<arg>..." in the synopsis and help message as discussed
with Emily, Eric and Junio.
