parse-options: catch likely typo in presense of aggregated options.

2008-01-26T18:53:31Z

If options are aggregated, and that the whole token is an exact prefix of a long option that is longer than 2 letters, reject it. This is to prevent a common typo: $ git commit -amend to get interpreted as "commit all with message 'end'". The typo check isn't performed if there is no aggregation, because the stuck form is the recommended one. If we have `-o` being a valid short option that takes an argument, and --option a long one, then we _MUST_ accept -option as "'o' option with argument 'ption'", which is our official recommended form.

Force the sticked form for options with optional arguments.

This forbids "git tag -n -l" we allowed earlier, so adjust t7004 while at it. Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit

parse-options: Allow to hide options from the default usage.

2007-11-23T06:11:28Z

This is useful for backward-compatibility aliases, or very advanced command line switches introduced for internal git usages and have no real use for a user. parse-options still shows them if the user asks for --help-all. Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

parse-options new features.

2007-11-12T00:54:15Z

options flags: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PARSE_OPT_NONEG allow the caller to disallow the negated option to exists. option types: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ OPTION_BIT: ORs (or NANDs) a mask. OPTION_SET_INT: force the value to be set to this integer. OPTION_SET_PTR: force the value to be set to this pointer. helper: ~~~~~~ HAS_MULTI_BITS (in git-compat-util.h) is a bit-hack to check if an unsigned integer has more than one bit set, useful to check if conflicting options have been used.

parse-options: abbreviation engine fix.

2007-11-06T06:46:45Z

When an option could be an ambiguous abbreviation of two options, the code used to error out. Even if an exact match would have occured later. Test and original patch by Pierre Habouzit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

parse-options: allow callbacks to take no arguments at all.

parse-options: Allow abbreviated options when unambiguous

2007-10-30T04:03:30Z

When there is an option "--amend", the option parser now recognizes "--am" for that option, provided that there is no other option beginning with "--am". Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

Add shortcuts for very often used options.

It helps with consistency of the help strings, for example. Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce

parse-options: make some arguments optional, add callbacks.

2007-10-30T04:03:30Z

* add the possibility to use callbacks to parse some options, this can help implementing new options kinds with great flexibility. struct option gains a callback pointer and a `defval' where callbacks user can put either integers or pointers. callbacks also can use the `value' pointer for anything, preferably to the pointer to the final storage for the value though. * add a `flag' member to struct option to make explicit that this option may have an optional argument. The semantics depends on the option type. For INTEGERS, it means that if the switch is not used in its --long-form= form, and that there is no token after it or that the token does not starts with a digit, then it's assumed that the switch has no argument. For STRING or CALLBACK it works the same, except that the condition is that the next atom starts with a dash. This is needed to implement backward compatible behaviour with existing ways to parse the command line. Its use for new options is discouraged. Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
