Although I would have called it "git-help--browse" rather than "git-browse--help" since

  a) it is related to "git help", not "git browse"
  b) there is no tab completion conflict with git-he, but there is with
     git-br. :) This is of course because I am using the file
     completion, but the programmable bash completion has the same
     problem. Shawn, perhaps it should simply ignore *--* as plumbing?
I can prepare a patch if "git-help--browse" makes more sense.
