Following the discussions about the tag peeling issue, I thought to have
a look at what the git glossary says.
I had it in my head that when the git guides were linked to the help
system, that the --help option provided a short circuit direct to help
item. However this did not happen.
I found that the capability had been lost, which given that a lot of the
underpinning knowledge is in the guides this would appear to be a loss.
I don't have an older version to test, but I thought I remember the
capability from about the time of my 65f98358c0 ("builtin/help.c: add
--guide option", 2013-04-02).
Have I misremembered the --help capability?
cc'ing Duy in case he remembers something from the recent update
As a side note, the glossary does mention a few times the tag of tag
capability but doesn't mention the peel/no-peel distinctions.
