Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.48
Severity: wishlist

If you are used to git, it would be easier to understand this wishlist.

bts help, by default, returns a long listing of options. And then each
option has a set of parameters for the option.

It'd be great if "bts help option" would return help text about the
option specified.

For example, if I do "bts help fixed", it'd be good to see the
following:
fixed <bug> <version>
And probably a small explanation.

Thanks,
Ritesh
