The .mrconfig file uses a variant of the INI file format. Lines starting with
"#" are comments. Lines ending with "\" are continued on to the next line.
-Sections specify where each repository is located, relative to the
+
+The "default" section allows setting default values for the sections that
+come after it.
+
+The "alias" section allows adding aliases for actions. Each parameter
+is an alias, and its value is the action to use.
+
+All other sections specify where each repository is located, relative to the
directory that contains the .mrconfig file.
Within a section, each parameter defines a shell command to run to handle a
-given action. Note that these shell commands are run in a "set -e" shell
+given action. mr contains default handlers for the "update", "status", and
+"commit" actions, so normally you only need to specify what to do for
+"checkout".
+
+Note that these shell commands are run in a "set -e" shell
environment, where any additional parameters you pass are available in
"$@". The "checkout" command is run in the parent of the repository
directory, since the repository isn't checked out yet. All other commands
command, this can be a useful way to define shell functions for other commands
to use.
-The "default" section allows setting up default handlers for each action,
-and is overridden by the contents of other sections. mr contains default
-handlers for the "update", "status", and "commit" actions, so normally
-you only need to specify what to do for "checkout".

-The "alias" section allows adding aliases for actions. Each parameter
-is an alias, and its value is the action to use.
