 - git remote: Separate usage strings for subcommands
Glancing at pu^2, I had two small nitpicks: [<options>...] is five
characters longer than strictly necessary, and the argument to git
remote set-head is not actually optional.

In other words, would it make sense to squash in something like the
following?

-- %< --
Subject: Tweak 'git remote' usage strings

The set-head argument is not optional.  <options>... is five
characters wider than it needs to be.
