Because asking that question to every small UI improvement is not very useful? And yes I could spell out '--help', but it just seems weird that I need to know the calling convention of git-revert (_and_ git-cherry-pick for that matter) in order to get the usage string, because that was what I wanted to know in the first place. Anyway, if you don't like it, please just drop the patch. :) -- Jonas Fonseca - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
