[PATCH] [TopGit] Make "tg help cmd" print cmd help

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



"tg help" looked like it needed help, and stuff it needed to know
about was already in README.

Use awk to extract help information from the README file.  Store
the help files in $(PREFIX)/share/topgit.  "tg help foo" will cat
$(PREFIX)/share/topgit/tg-foo.txt.

This is instead of the previous patch.  It fixes a bug where the
help for the last command (update) wasn't terminated properly.
