I do not think what the patch aims to do is wrong per-se, but

 $ git send-email --help

already shows the full documentation, and I find it is misleading to say
"help|H|h" here to pretend as if a long-help is triggered with this
command. For that matter, do we have any other place that accept -H for
help?

IOW, shouldn't this line be this instead?
