✨ bup-help(1) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the bup-help page 💖 this one lives in the General Commands Manual and honestly? it's giving personal assistant energy. it does exactly one (1) thing and it slays at it 🫶

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

bup-help — open the documentation for a given bup command 📖✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bup help <command>

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so like. bup help <command> opens the documentation for the command you asked about, okay?? that's it, that's the whole vibe 😌

right now it's currently equivalent to just typing man bup-<command>. same thing, same energy, no cap 💯

---

🦋 EXAMPLES 🦋

watch this:

$ bup help help
(Imagine that this man page was pasted below,
 recursively.  Since that would cause an endless loop
 we include this silly remark instead.  Chicken.)

not the recursive man-page inception 😭 the hypothetical would loop forever, so instead you get that silly little remark. Chicken. 🐔 iconic honestly
