#1072: tg-admin help is non-discoverable

 Priority:  normal       |   Milestone:

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 For utilities that take a command argument (like tg-admin, cvs, or svn),
 it's customary to give general help with no arguments ("tg-admin") or a
 help argument ("tg-admin help"), and to give specific command help for
 "tg-admin help <command>".

 Right now, in order to get help for a specific command, you need to append
 the "-h" flag to the command: "tg-admin quickstart -h".  This isn't
 discoverable--neither "tg-admin" nor "tg-admin help" tell you this.

 Because many developers are familiar with svn or cvs, tg-admin should
 follow their precedent:

 "tg-admin" => list of commands, with both "help" and "help <command>"
 explained
 "tg-admin help" => same as above
 "tg-admin help <command>" => help for a specific command
