splitting up the man page
Common command man pages all split out and often expanded. A few sections split out into their own pages. Still need to do all the other commands..

+# NAME
+
+git-annex drop - indicate content of files not currently wanted
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+git annex drop `[path ...]`
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Drops the content of annexed files from this repository, when
+possible.
+
+git-annex will refuse to drop content if it cannot verify it is
+safe to do so.
+
+# OPTIONS
+
+* `--from=remote`
+
+ Rather than dropping the content of files in the local repository,
+ this option can specifiy a remote from which the files'
+ contents should be removed.
+
+* `--force`
+
+ Use this option with care! It bypasses safety checks, and forces
+ git-annex to delete the content of the specified files, even from
+ the last repository that is storing their content. Data loss can
+ result from using this option.
+
+* file matching options
+
+ The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
+ can be used to specify files to drop.
