Okay, `git-http-backend` is listed in `git --list-cmds=main`.
That one doesn’t support `-h`.
$ git http-backend -h >/dev/null
fatal: No REQUEST_METHOD from server
and
$ git http-backend -h 2>/dev/null
Status: 500 Internal Server Error

git-filter-branch(1) prints a warning about “glut of gotchas”, waits 10
seconds, then prints usage to stdout.
$ time git filter-branch -h >/dev/null
