When I run jq --foo it tells me to run jq --help to get help with command line options:

marc@astrotrain ~ $ jq --foo
jq: Unknown option --foo
Use jq --help for help with command-line options,
or see the jq documentation at http:https://stedolan.github.com/jq

but jq --help does not list or offer help on the command line options:

marc@astrotrain ~ $ jq --help

jq - commandline JSON processor [version 1.3]
Usage: jq [options] <jq filter> [file...]

For a description of the command line options and
how to write jq filters (and why you might want to)
see the jq manpage, or the online documentation at
http:https://stedolan.github.com/jq
