Hello,
since some time ago the syntax of git commands was changed from
something like "git-add" to "git add". I have no problem with that at
all but as I often use <ALT>-H to get help for a command I get the main
git page of git which is not what I want to see.
Is there any way to configure run-help to use "man git-add" when I press
<ALT>-H in a line with "git add"?

If your zsh is new enough:
autoload -Uz run-help-git
That should be all to do the trick.

Well, that assumes you're already using the `run-help' function. There
may be an alias `run-help' set to `man'. So, to be complete:
(( ${+aliases[run-help]} )) && unalias run-help
autoload -Uz run-help
autoload -Uz run-help-git

You might also need
unalias run-help
autoload -Uz run-help
since by default run-help is just an alias for man, and the facility
for using helpers is only built into the function version.

Thanks, that did the stuff. I was knowing that there is a simple
solution. :-)
