The granularity is different, though. I like that "notmuch help show"
shows just the documentation for "notmuch show". And I also like that
"man notmuch" shows all the documentation, (without having to have N
different man pages for each of the sub-commands).

Meanwhile, the git approach does mean that one doesn't get any "builtin"
help unless the external man-based stuff is working and installed. I'm
not sure that I want to depend on that.
