Firstly, I'm sorry that this arrangement you're experiencing is rather
clumsy.

Yes, it is targeted at you. It says to consult the documentation.
Which documentation did you consult?
The option isn't `--deliberately`. It's `--deliberate-something`.
The system needs to get you to make a choice, and the choice is
explained in the documentation.
https://manpages.debian.org/testing/dgit/dgit.1.en.html#deliberately-
We should perhaps have it say "Consult dgit(1)" rather than the vaguer
"documentation" and also saying just --deliberately should produce a
bespoke error message.
