Git for Windows shows help for its subcommands in a browser by default; so `Git help rebase`, for example, brings up empty split. Git for MinGW behaves the same way. If Git configuration option `help.format` is defined, it takes precedence over default behavior. This commit covers notable exceptions to that: `git help`, `git -h`, `git help -a`, `git help -g`, `git help --man` and `git --help`. Also, `git <cmd> -h` and `git <cmd> --help` behave differently.
