+Usage: $ME [OPTIONS] [ARGS]
+
+Convert git log output to ChangeLog format.  If present, any ARGS
+are passed to "git log".  To avoid ARGS being parsed as options to
+$ME, they may be preceded by '--'.
+
+OPTIONS:
+
+   --since=DATE convert only the logs since DATE;
+                  the default is to convert all log entries.
+   --format=FMT set format string for commit subject and body;
+                  see 'man git-log' for the list of format metacharacters;
+                  the default is '%s%n%b%n'
+
+   --help       display this help and exit
+   --version    output version information and exit
+
+EXAMPLE:
+
+  $ME --since=2008-01-01 > ChangeLog
+  $ME -- -n 5 foo > last-5-commits-to-branch-foo
