can someone please enlighten me why you need to see the usage, when you

I think Pasky gave rev-list just as an example, as I am sure
there are other lowlevel core tools, that share this same
unfriendliness.  Primarily, these tools are meant for scripting,
and not for end-user interactive use.  For this reason, it is
not high on my priority list to add --help to the lowlevel core
tools, although it would be nicer to have.
