Makes git work with a pure POSIX shell (tested with bash --posix and ash). Right now git causes ash to choke on the redundant shift on line two.
Reduces the number of system calls git makes just to do a usage statement from 22610 to 1122, and the runtime for same from 349ms to 29ms on my x86 Linux box. Presents a standard usage statement, and pretty prints the available commands in a form that does not scroll off small terminals.
