New Revision: 349874
URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=349874&view=rev
Log:
"help finish" tells you it is an alias. "help fin" doesn't.
They both run the same command, and people get used to typing the shortest
string they can, so we should support alias info on shortened strings as well.
