myfirstcontrib: add 'psuh' to command-list.txt

Users can discover commands and their brief usage by running 'git help
git' or 'git help -a'; both of these pages list all available commands
based on the contents of 'command-list.txt'. That means adding a new
command there is an important part of the new command process, and
therefore belongs in the new command tutorial.

Teach new users how to add their command, and include a brief overview
of how to discover which attributes to place on the command in the list.

Since 'git psuh' prints some workspace info, doesn't modify anything,
and is targeted as a user-facing porcelain command, list it as a
'mainporcelain' and 'info' command.

As the usage string is required to generate this documentation, don't
add the command to the list until after the usage string is added to the
tutorial.

+Now that you have a usage hint, you can teach Git how to show it in the general
+command list shown by `git help git` or `git help -a`, which is generated from
+`command-list.txt`. Find the line for 'git-pull' so you can add your 'git-psuh'
+line above it in alphabetical order. Now, we can add some attributes about the
+command which impacts where it shows up in the aforementioned help commands. The
+top of `command-list.txt` shares some information about what each attribute
+means; in those help pages, the commands are sorted according to these
+attributes. `git psuh` is user-facing, or porcelain - so we will mark it as
+"mainporcelain". For "mainporcelain" commands, the comments at the top of
+`command-list.txt` indicate we can also optionally add an attribute from another
+list; since `git psuh` shows some information about the user's workspace but
+doesn't modify anything, let's mark it as "info". Make sure to keep your
+attributes in the same style as the rest of `command-list.txt` using spaces to
+align and delineate them:

 Build again. Now, when you run with `-h`, you should see your usage printed and
 your command terminated before anything else interesting happens. Great!
