Re: [PATCH] git-rev-list --help anywhere

Because you're writing a script, or explaining it to someone over the phone, or writing shell autocompletion macros, otherwise using it in some kind of delayed or deferred way.

These ain't no steenkin GUI tools; they can be used in more ways that typed interactively for immediate execution.

(Have you ever noticed how all the GUI people have rediscovered the
concept of a pathname and a single-character directory separator when
explaining how to navigate a menu/dialog maze?  The character '>' seems
to be popular.
	Go to menu A
	Then go to submenu B
	Then select item C to open a dialog
	Then go to tab D of that dialog.
	Then hit the "Advanced options" button
	Then select tab E of that dialog
	Then select option F
How exactly is this is an improvement over A/B/C/D/Advanced options/E/F?)
