Package: git-core
Version: 1:1.6.3.3-1
Severity: minor
File: /usr/lib/git-core/git-help
I don't have info(1) installed, because I use Emacs' internal info client.
I was curious to see what would happen when I tried to run git help -i.
It turns out that it silently fails. It SHOULD print an error of some sort.
$ strace -f git help log -i |& grep info

...}) = 0
