 The optional -b argument can be used to select the manifest branch
 to checkout and use.  If no branch is specified, master is assumed.
 
+The optional -m argument can be used to specify an alternate manifest
+to be used. If no manifest is specified, the manifest default.xml
+will be used.
+
+The --reference option can be used to point to a directory that
+has the content of a --mirror sync. This will make the working
+directory use as much data as possible from the local reference
+directory when fetching from the server. This will make the sync
+go a lot faster by reducing data traffic on the network.
