I thought about doing this, but I would like more than just dumping
the options. In zsh one can show more than just the options; each
option can have a description.

I was thinking on something like 'git help --raw'. We also need
something like that to list all the plumbing commands, and options for
certain options, like merge strategies, and so on. Perhaps it would
even make sense to have a new 'git raw-help' command.

Cheers.
