Re: Custom subcommand help handlers

Another observation.

This also applies to external aliases
  git -c alias.fr='!git-filter-repo' fr --help
returns
  'fr' is aliased to '!git-filter-repo'
 w exit code 0

I should point out that in most cases on Unix, it _is_ expected that you
install your manual pages into the same place as everyone else, so in
this case, installing the HTML documentation alongside Git's may be the
best solution.

Yup, that sounds like the most sensible way to do things.

So what about `~/bin/git-my-reply-to-junio`? Do we expect people to write
a manual page and install it into `~/man/man1` and for `man` to pick that
up?

Yes, if they write one, and then tell man that you have extra
manpages there via MANPATH.

I expect people *not* to write a manual page in practice for such a
thing, though ;-)
