Description Luwen Su 2014-07-11 08:48:41 UTC
Description of problem:
Missing ** in most of "help" document

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
docker-1.0.0-9.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Through
https://github.com/lsm5/docker/commit/f2578a47be666e71c19553aa2d0d7fc89547662b,
all  [**--help] should be  [**--help**], otherwise it will looks like
#man docker commit
 -a, --author="" Author name.  (eg.  "John Hannibal Smith <hannibal>"

       **--help Print Usage statement

       -m, --message="" Commit message

which is what the docker shows now.

2.And different command will treat **--help as different ways
#docker cp **--help

Usage: docker cp CONTAINER:PATH HOSTPATH

Copy files/folders from the PATH to the HOSTPATH

  --help=false       Print usage
docker commit **--help
2014/07/11 16:01:48 Error: No such container: **--help
