I do not particularly like advocating "git help" too strongly like that.
I prefer to keep the user perception of "git" to be just "one of the
programs, nothing special".

If you want to learn about "cat", you say "man cat".  If you want to learn
about git, you say "man git", and while you *can* say "git help", the
point is you do *not* have to.  You do not have to run "git" to learn
about it.
