git trim --help does not show help message #25

git-trim --help shows a help message. git trim --help does not show the help message.

git trim --help is internally converted to git help trim according to the reference (https://git-scm.com/docs/git-help), so I can't control it. git controls it. And it seems to require a man page. I haven't published it with cargo. Would you like to contribute to it?

I found git-extras has manual pages for its commands. I'll check it. https://github.com/tj/git-extras

It seems that we can't automatically install man pages using the cargo install.

The ripgrep has manpage. cargo install does not install man page. apt install ripgrep installs manpage. The ripgrep team also distributes the man page with static binary. https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/FAQ.md#does-ripgrep-have-a-man-page

Now it builds documents (https://github.com/foriequal0/git-trim/pull/87), and homebrew formulae correctly install man files.
