We got a bug report in Debian for missing PYTHON_BASIC_REPL documentation

The manpage is a bit out of date from the Sphinx docs, when it comes to environment variables and -X command line options.

Bring it back up to date.

I excluded windows-only options, as manpages are probably not relevant on that platform.

I was searching for an issue to use but unless you want to create one with the same text as in the PR, I think we can skip the issue.

We could create an issue though if we want to communicate that the manpage documentation is now up-to-date but it might be unnecessary.

Thanks for the update!

How can I build and view the output of this PR?

Otherwise nroff -man file.man | more -s (maybe groff can be used as well)

Oh if you want the full build, I think you need to install entirely, including the docs though I don't remember which target it is. Then use man directly (maybe you need to change some search paths just to avoid getting the manpage of your system-wide python)

Noting this one is shown for python3.14t --help-all and not python3.14 --help-all, but the same applies to PYTHON_GIL and we already have that in this file.

Yeah, I think we have to include everything (or have multiple manpages).

This has some 3.13-only things, shall we only backport to 3.13? Or also 3.12?

(I won't be surprised if there'll be conflicts anyway for 3.13.)

I'm happy to review the lists again and prepare backports, if that helps.
