While working on a Bash completion PR, I noticed the absence of ls from the arguments list for -h/--help and ollama listing.

Quick look at code revealed it was added as an 'Alias' to list command, therefore it is not shown as an additional command. Generally it is used in Cobra to support give option to change functionality name without breaking backwards compatibility.
https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/cmd/cmd.go#L999C1-L1005C3

	listCmd := &cobra.Command{
		Use:     "list",
		Aliases: []string{"ls"},
		Short:   "List models",
		PreRunE: checkServerHeartbeat,
		RunE:    ListHandler,
	}

Hey @aosan , as @amila-ku mentioned, the command is ollama list but ls is an alias.

@pdevine this is a usability issue not a "find in the code" quest, the options menu presented to the user is incomplete. The fact that ls is an alias is a distinction without a difference. This incompleteness impacts bash_completion and future man pages.
