I just noticed this.
$ darcs help
darcs failed: Invalid command 'help'!
Usage: darcs COMMAND ...
...etc...
Here I'd always assumed "darcs help" was a real command! I'd never
bothered to look at the first few lines of output (see next bug).
It really should be a real command. Every system should respond to "help".
In this case darcs does it unofficially. Make it official.
This also paves the way for obvious syntax like:
darcs help diff
which would be an alias of
darcs diff --help
