Git's inconsistent command line options

Hi,

I've used Git for years and this has always bothered me. Has anybody else noticed the inconsistent command line parameteres for seemingly similar tasks. There are many examples, but I'll list only two (I can supply a more extensive list if needed).

eg: Renaming things.

 * When working with branches it uses "-m" or "-M" to rename a branch.

 * When working with remote repos it use "rename"  (not even the more
common -- prefix either).

eg: Deleting things

  * When working with branches it uses "-d" or "-D" to delete a branch

  * When working with remote branch it uses only a push command.

  * When deleting a remote repo it uses "remove" (again not even with
the commonly used -- prefix)

Even though I have worked with Git since 2009, I still have to reference the help to remind me of what parameter to use in certain situation simply because similar tasks differ so much.

Maybe we could address this in the next major version of Git? Has anybody else thought about this or started work on this? Or was this discussed before and declined (link?).

Regards,
