This change is strictly about 'git merge-ours -h' without any other options and arguments. This change cannot break compatibility since merge drivers are always passed '--', among other arguments. Any usage string for this command is a lie, since it ignored its arguments until now. Still, it makes sense to let the user know the expected usage when asked.
