commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=fa3c5cad44b245833612705a88101f3737d02b38
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

This is what the manpages usually do, and what Python does with the
automatically-added -h/--help parameter:

Before the change:
  $ ./support/testing/run-tests
    [...]
  optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    --list, -l            list of available test cases
    --all, -a             execute all test cases

After the change:
  $ ./support/testing/run-tests
    [...]
  optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    -l, --list            list of available test cases
    -a, --all             execute all test cases
