Really great stuff. Thanks.

I can see a slight difference in behaviour but I don't have any issue
with it - previously "stg help <cmd>" showed the full description
while "stg <cmd> --help" only the short one.

An additional point on naming - should we use StGIT or StGit? The
original name was StGIT since GIT looked like an acronym. It looks
like now more people name it Git hence our tool moved slowly into
StGit but not everywhere. I personally like StGIT but the last 3
letters should really be the same as the official git (Git, GIT).
