Branch: samthursfield/update-help
Sha1: 17bd68f0dc622d3c6c508d366c8fa5fc00b9790b
Length of morph --help reduced from 183 lines to 143 lines.
There's still a lot more to do to improve --help, but most of that
requires deeper work in cliapp first.
Sam Thursfield (4):
Reorder settings by broad category
Reduce some option descriptions
Remove hello-plugin
Improve command descriptions in --help

New subject: [PATCH 1/4] Reorder settings by broad category
Also remove the '--ignore-submodules' option, which is redundant.
Hopefully cliapp will one day support option grouping, so we can
hide some sets by default and group eg. all the logging options
together.

There's still a lot more to do to improve --help, but most of that
requires deeper work in cliapp first.
May I suggest using the group='Group name' feature in cliapp settings?
Then --help will group options that belong to the same group under a

Then --help will group options that belong to the same group under a

To clarify, something like this:
group_output = 'Output control'
self.settings.boolean(['verbose', 'v'],
'show what is happening in much detail',
group=group_output)
--help output then contains this:
Output control:

I wish I'd known that before :) Is there a way we can affect the cliapp
built-in options with this too? For example, most of the 'Output
control' options are builtins, but we add -v and -q inside Morph.

Not yet, but I'll add that to my list of things to do for cliapp.

New subject: [PATCH 5/5] Set option group for some advanced settings
[
I played with option groups a bit and came up with this, which I think
makes the output a bit nicer. No changes to the other patches.
New branch sha1: 3e5be4e232d5f0e9d5a9690560a1f0ee689745ca
]
It would be nice to put every option in a group, but for now the built-in
cliapp options cannot be grouped so the output is less than ideal.
Also, we have no way of setting an order for groups, which results in e.g.
'Advanced Options' preceeding 'General Options' etc.
