[ Sorry for the resend. This should bring all usage strings in sync. I
  forgot to add the new options. ]
 - Synchronize usage strings with those in cg-help. The command
   identifiers are still not as descriptive, though.
 - Add usage utility function which uses the recently introduced USAGE
   variables.
 - Minor fix and improvement of cg-clone documentation.
