  --output OUTPUT, -o OUTPUT
                        output file
  --page-break, -p      insert page breaks between parts
  --no-skip-sectpr      do not skip SectPr: header and footer

Also it has --version flag to check the installed program version:

docx-combine 0.2.4

The program expects main file that will be chosen as main part of document. There are before and after options. To insert parts before main use --before flag, and for after parts use --after. Before and after insertions it is possible to break pages using --page-break flag. Special flag --no-skip-sectpr allows to combine headers and footers not only from main file but from parts too.
