What about it?

Asking for help on log could be spelled as "git log --help" with
a patch like the attached, but I am not sure that is worth it...
I would say that it is very useful to newbies, or simply not to
frustrate users trying to get help. It is really worth it, at least for
me.
Have you read the patch, especially the comment in it?  With and
without the patch, this command would behave quite differently:

	$ git commit --help
Keyboard shortcuts
hback out one level
jnext message in thread
kprevious message in thread
ldrill in
Escclose help / fold thread tree
?toggle this help
