[darcs-devel] [issue1821] unfortunate help formatting with option alternatives

[Dave Love]

New submission from Dave Love <fx at gnu.org>:

Where there are alternative names for options, they push all the
descriptions in the --help output far over to the right.  Could the list
be broken with newline/indent rather than a comma?  Alternatively the
description could be on a newline.  I could have a look at
implementation if necessary.

Example from pull --help:

             --dont-allow-conflicts, --no-allow-conflicts  fail if there patches that would create conflicts
