run-help is by default an alias to man, and can be redefined to a function (in Functions/Misc) that will look in other places before invoking man. It is bound to the key sequence: ALT-h (aka ESC-h).

The function can be further customized by defining helper functions of the form run-help-command. There are three such functions available in the standard distribution: run-help-git, run-help-svk, and run-help-svn.

To make use of the more advanced function (and three helpers), insert the following into your .zshrc 

autoload -U run-help
autoload run-help-git
autoload run-help-svn
autoload run-help-svk
export HELPDIR=~/zsh_help

See the manual here and here for more details.
