Hi git folks,

the command git-upload-archive is not properly showing usage info when ran barely with out any args.

it shows some kind of unwanted garbage instead of showing a nice help message.

The output is pasted here.

root@devendra-Linux:/home/devendra/git/Documentation# git-upload-archive 0008ACK 00000026 usage: git upload-archive <repo> 0031 git upload-archive: archiver died with errorfatal: sent error to the client: git upload-archive: archiver died with error

my git latest version shows commit sha1 number 6db5c6e43dccb380ca6e9947777985eb11248c31.

Devendra.
