Ahem, './sage --help'?

That points you to './sage --advanced' (advanced help) as well, which gives

Installing packages and upgrading:
  -package [args]     -- call the new package manager with given arguments.
                         Run without arguments for package-specific help.
  -experimental       -- list all experimental packages that can be
installed
  -f [opts] [packages]-- shortcut for -i -f: force build of the given Sage
                         packages
  -i [opts] [packages]-- install the given Sage packages.  Options:
                           -c -- run the packages' test suites
                           -d -- only download, do not install packages
                           -f -- force build: install the packages even
                                 if they are already installed
                           -s -- do not delete the temporary build
directories
                                 after a successful build
  -p [opts] [packages]-- install the given Sage packages, without dependency
                         checking and with support for old-style spkgs.
                         Options are -c, -d and -s with the same meaning as
                         for the -i command
  -info [packages]    -- print the SPKG.txt of the given packages
  --location          -- if needed, fix paths to make Sage relocatable
  -optional           -- list all optional packages that can be installed
  -standard           -- list all standard packages that can be installed
  -installed          -- list all installed packages
  -upgrade [version]  -- download, build and install the given version.
Here,
                         'version' is a git branch or tag name. Useful
values
                         are 'master' (the current development version, this
                         is the default) or a version number like '5.13'.
  -pip [...]          -- invoke pip, the Python package manager


besides further usage help on other topics.
