The full documentation for rushlast is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info and rush programs were installed from source at your site, the command
info rush
should give you access to the complete manual.
An online manual is available at

The Debian package provides information in
/etc/rush.rc
/usr/share/doc/rush/README.Debian.gz
with relevant examples, but cannot include the Texinfo manual.

This text was written by Mats Erik Andersson for the Debian project, because the original source supplies documentation only in the form of a GNU Texinfo manual. The upstream author licenses the manual under GFDL-1.3, so it had to be removed from the Debian packaging.
