Okay, sorry.  I was in a bad mood (you know why, I guess), and I was a 
little tongue-in-cheek here.  I apologise.

The thing is, show-branch might be mighty useful for you, but I agree with 
another poster that its output is not for the faint of heart, if it goes 
without an explanation.

So I vote for keeping relatively quiet about it in the output of "git 
help" which is -- according to some people -- the first thing new git 
users see.

Power users, such as yourself, will read in the user manual or in the FAQ 
about the existence of this nice tool, and do not need to be reminded of 
it by git-help.

Fair enough?
