Bug Description
--help listed but not implemented.
$ git ubuntu -h
usage: git-ubuntu [-h]
Ubuntu git development tool
positional arguments:
build|
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
More information is available at https:/
So far so good, also no args work:
$ git ubuntu
usage: git-ubuntu [-h]
Ubuntu git development tool
positional arguments:
build|
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
More information is available at https:/
But:
$ git ubuntu --help
No manual entry for git-ubuntu
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
We discussed that a while ago and IIRC it is because git back maps that to a man page call which we lack in the snap version.
How about dropping the --help from the text at least to confuse less?
Or are snap man pages or other alternatives getting close to be ing realized?

1) The snap manpage already works, at least in my testing.
2) The --help option works with `git-ubuntu --help`.
3) The problem is that `git ubuntu` and `git-ubuntu` while seemingly the same, are not :) One is actually an exec from git, other is the command itself.
4) For your case, are you running from the git repository or the snap?
