From b0b3a8b666ac9bcab93c9b05ca7de918d7fa18bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Nieder Date: Wed, 1 Dec 2010 17:32:16 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] parse-options: allow git commands to invent new option types parse-options provides a variety of option behaviors, including OPTION_CALLBACK, which should take care of just about any sane behavior. All supported behaviors obey the following constraint: A --foo option can only accept (and base its behavior on) one argument, which would be the following command-line argument in the "unsticked" form. Alas, some existing git commands have options that do not obey that constraint. For example, update-index --cacheinfo takes three arguments, and update-index --resolve takes all later parameters as arguments. Introduces an OPTION_LOWLEVEL_CALLBACK backdoor to parse-options so such option types can be supported without tempting inventors of other commands through mention in the public API. Commands can set the callback field to a function accepting three arguments: the option parsing context, the option itself, and a flag indicating whether the the option was negated. When the option is encountered, that function is called to take over from get_value(). The return value should be zero for success, -1 for usage errors. Thanks to Stephen Boyd for API guidance.
