Summary

  • clarify that --full-path searches the full path, not an absolute output path
  • describe the default search target as the final path component
  • update the README help snapshot to match

Fixes #1686.

Checks

  • cargo fmt -- --check
  • cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -Dwarnings
  • cargo test --locked

Describe the default search target as the final path component and avoid implying that --full-path is the same as absolute output.

Friendly note: #1997 covers the same #1686 help-text updates with a broader pass (README, man, completion, regression test) and is CI-green. Consider closing this in favor of #1997 to reduce maintainer review load.
