As Aaron point in the discussion of bug
plugins command is hidden and primarily designed for debugging.
I wrote my patch because I lazy man and don't want rename plugins such
as bzrtools-0.11 and bzr-gtk-0.11 to something pythonic. Because it
works in any case. I just don't like that help for any bzr-gtk-0.11
plugin command looks like following:
$ bzr gannotate --help
usage: bzr gannotate FILENAME [LINE]
aliases: gblame, gpraise
(From plugin "bzr-gtk-0")
GTK+ annotate.
Browse changes to FILENAME line by line in a GTK+ window.
options:
--plain don't highlight annotation lines
--all show annotations on all lines
--line=LINENO jump to specified line number
-h, --help show help message
Please take a look to 4 line of help:
(From plugin "bzr-gtk-0")
This is what I want to fix. But Aaron and you say that it don't need to
fix because it's not broken. I give up.
