Subject: Make "tg help cmd" print cmd help
X-Git-Url: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ian/git?p=topgit.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=db4bc100e4afd0e405443f5bab4a242b989a6a64

Make "tg help cmd" print cmd help

"tg help" looked like it needed help, and stuff it needed to know
about was already in README.

Use awk to extract help information from the README file.  Store
the help files in $(PREFIX)/share/topgit.  "tg help foo" will cat
$(PREFIX)/share/topgit/tg-foo.txt.
