B<mr> [options] action [params ...]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<mr> is a Multiple Repository management tool. It allows you to register a
set of repositories in a .mrconfig file, and then checkout, update, or
-perform other actions on all of the repositories at once.
+perform other actions on the repositories as if they were one big
+respository.
Any mix of revision control systems can be used with B<mr>, and you can
define arbitrary actions for commands like "update", "checkout", or "commit".
+B<mr> cds into and operates on all registered repsitories at or below your
+working directory. Or, if you are in a subdirectory of a repository that
+contains no other registered repositories, it will stay in that directory,
+and work on only that repository,
+
The predefined commands should be fairly familiar to users of any revision
control system:

-=item checkout
+=item checkout (or co)

+Checks out any repositories that are not already checked out.
=item update
-Updates each registered repository from its configured remote repository.
+Updates each repository from its configured remote repository.
If a repository isn't checked out yet, it will first check it out.
=item status

uncommitted changes are present in the repository.
-=item commit
+=item commit (or ci)
-Commits changes to each registered repository. (By default, changes
-are pushed to the remote repository too, when using distributed systems
-like git.)
+Commits changes to each repository. (By default, changes are pushed to the
+remote repository too, when using distributed systems like git.)
The optional -m parameter allows specifying a commit message.
+=item diff
+
+Show a diff of uncommitted changes.
+
+=item log
+
+Show the commit log.
+
+=item list (or ls)
+
+List the repositories that mr will act on.
+
+=item help
+
+Displays this help.

Actions can be abbreviated to any unambiguous subsctring, so
-"mr st" is equivilant to "mr status".
+"mr st" is equivilant to "mr status", and "mr up" is equivilant to "mr
+update"
+
+Additional parameters can be passed to other commands than "commit", they
+will be passed on unchanged to the underlying revision control system.
+This is mostly useful if the repositories mr will act on all use the same
+revision control system.

=item -d directory
Specifies the topmost directory that B<mr> should work in. The default is
-the current working directory. B<mr> will operate on all registered
-repositories at or under the directory.

=item -c mrconfig

directory.
=item -v
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
-"$@". B<mr> cds into the repository directory before running
-a command, except for the "checkout" command, which is run in the parent
-of the repository directory, since the repository isn't checked out yet.
+"$@". The "checkout" command is run in the parent of the repository
+directory, since the repository isn't checked out yet. All other commands
+are run inside the repository, though not necessarily at the top of it.
+The "MR_REPO" environment variable is set to the path to the top of the
+repository.
There are three special parameters. If the "skip" parameter is set and
its command returns nonzero, then B<mr> will skip acting on that repository.
will try to load a .mrconfig file from the root of the repository. (You
should avoid chaining from repositories with untrusted committers.) The
"lib" parameter can specify some shell code that will be run before each
-command, this can be a useful way to define shell functions other commands
-can 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
