+The predefined commands should be fairly familiar to users of any revision

+
+=over 4
+
+=item checkout (or co)
+
+Checks out any repositories that are not already checked out.
+
+=item update
+
+Updates each repository from its configured remote repository.
+
+If a repository isn't checked out yet, it will first check it out.
+
+=item status
+
+Displays a status report for each repository, showing what
+uncommitted changes are present in the repository.
+
+=item commit (or ci)
+
+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 register
+
+The next parameter is the directory of an existing repository. The
+repository will be registered in the mrconfig file.
+
+=item config
+
+Modifies the mrconfig file. The next parameter is the name of the section
+to add or modify, and it is followed by one or more instances of
+"parameter=value". Use "parameter=" to remove a parameter. 
+
+For example, to register a new svn repository in src/foo:
+
+  mr config src/foo checkout="svn co svn://example.com/foo/trunk"
+
+=item help
+
+Displays this help.
+
+=back
+
+Actions can be abbreviated to any unambiguous subsctring, so
+"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.

-B<mr> is configured by .mrconfig files. It searches for .mrconfig files in
-your home directory, and in the root directory of each repository specified
-in a .mrconfig file. So you could have a ~/.mrconfig that registers a
-repository ~/src, that itself contains a ~/src/.mrconfig file, that in turn
-registers several additional repositories.
+B<mr> is configured by .mrconfig files. It starts by reading the .mrconfig
+file in your home directory, and this can in turn chain load .mrconfig files
+from repositories.
+
+Here is an example .mrconfig file:
+
+  [src]
+  checkout = svn co svn://svn.example.com/src/trunk src
+  chain = true
+
+  [src/linux-2.6]
+  checkout = git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

 
 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.

 "#" are comments. Lines ending with "\" are continued on to the next line.

-Sections specify where each repository is located, relative to the
-directory that contains the .mrconfig file.
+
+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 add repositories. The section header specifies the
+directory where the repository is located. This is relative to the directory
+that contains the mrconfig file, but you can also choose to use absolute
+paths.

 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
-environment, and B<mr> cds into the repository directory before running

-repository directory, since the repository isn't checked out yet.
+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".

 
 

-There are two special parameters. If the "skip" parameter is set and
-its command returns nonzero, then B<mr> will skip acting on that repository.
+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
+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.

 
 

-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".
+A few parameters have special meanings:

 
 

-For example:
+=over 4

 
 

-  [src]
-  checkout = svn co svn://svn.example.com/src/trunk src
+=item skip

 
 

-  [src/linux-2.6]
-  # only check this out on kodama
-  skip = test $(hostname) != kodama
-  checkout = git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
+If the "skip" parameter is set and its command returns nonzero, then B<mr>
+will skip acting on that repository.
+
+=item chain
+
+If the "chain" parameter is set and its command returns nonzero, then B<mr>
+will try to load a .mrconfig file from the root of the repository. (You
+should avoid chaining from repositories with untrusted committers.)
+
+=item deleted
+
+If the "deleted" parameter is set and its command returns nonzero, then
+B<mr> will treat the repository as deleted. It won't ever actually delete
+the repository, but it will warn if it sees the repsoitory's directory.
+This is useful when one mrconfig file is shared amoung multiple machines,
+to keep track of and remember to delete old repositories.
+
+=item lib
+
+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 for other commands
+to use.
