Cobra prints usage/help text by default when `RunE` returns an error. This meant any runtime error (e.g. a rebase conflict during `restack`) would dump a wall of irrelevant help output before the actual error message. Set `SilenceUsage: true` on the root command so help is only shown for actual usage errors. Closes #35
