I get a usage message without the patch.

With the patch, I get the man-page.

IOW, I don't see your point.

I'd have expected that to be an improvement. You can always get the usage 
message with "git commit --huh?", so it's not like you've lost anything.

Now, if you have _not_ done

	make prefix=/usr/share install-doc

or similar, then yes, you get something less than helpful (along the lines 
of "No manual entry for git-commit"), and I agree that we could/should 
improve on that somehow.
