The output of 'svnmucc --help' does not follow conventions of other Subversion
command line tools. svnmucc is being promoted to a core tool in 1.8, and thus
its help text should match these conventions.
Some points of concern:
$ svnmucc --help
Multiple URL Command Client (for Subversion)
Usage: svnmucc [OPTION]... [ACTION]...
Saying "(for Subversion)" is redundant for a core tool.
Actions:
cp REV URL1 URL2 copy URL1@REV to URL2
mkdir URL create new directory URL
Other tools say "subcommands" instead of "Actions".
Furthermore, svnmucc has short option aliases which don't exist in standard
tools (-?, -u, -p, -U, -n, -X):
-h, --help, -? display this text
-m, --message ARG use ARG as a log message
-F, --file ARG read log message from file ARG
-u, --username ARG commit the changes as username ARG
-p, --password ARG use ARG as the password
-U, --root-url ARG interpret all action URLs are relative to ARG
-r, --revision ARG use revision ARG as baseline for changes
--with-revprop A[=B] set revision property A in new revision to B
if specified, else to the empty string
-n, --non-interactive don't prompt the user about anything
-X, --extra-args ARG append arguments from file ARG (one per line;
use "-" to read from standard input)
I would suggest to remove -?, but to keep -u, -p, -U, and -n for backwards
compatibility with existing scripts but list them in a special "backwards
compat" section of the help text and mark them deprecated.
