+git-help(1)
+===========
+
+NAME
+----
+git-help - display help information about git
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git help' [-a|--all] [COMMAND]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+With no options and no COMMAND given, the synopsis of the 'git'
+command and a list of the most commonly used git commands are printed
+on the standard output.
+
+If the option '--all' or '-a' is given, then all available commands are
+printed on the standard output.
+
+If a git command is named, a manual page for that command is brought
+up. The 'man' program is used by default for this purpose.
+
+Note that 'git --help ...' is identical as 'git help ...' because the
+former is internally converted into the latter.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-a|--all::
+
+ Prints all the available commands on the standard output. This
+ option superseeds any other option.
