Subject: git alias and --help
Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2011 00:20:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <j8clg9$ldh$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
I'm having a tiny question about git aliases.
in ~/.gitconfig I defined an alias
b = branch
This works well execp if I type
git b --help
Now I get the output
`git b' is aliased to `branch'
which is nice to know however what I reall wanted is to get the helptext
for the branch command.
Is there any trick to get the help text of git branch without
having to type
git branch --help
