<div id="preamble">
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>The parse-options API is used to parse and massage options in Git
and to provide a usage help with consistent look.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_basics">Basics</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>The argument vector <code>argv[]</code> may usually contain mandatory or optional
<em>non-option arguments</em>, e.g. a filename or a branch, and <em>options</em>.
Options are optional arguments that start with a dash and
that allow to change the behavior of a command.</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
There are basically three types of options:
  <em>boolean</em> options,
  options with (mandatory) <em>arguments</em> and
  options with <em>optional arguments</em>
  (i.e. a boolean option that can be adjusted).
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
There are basically two forms of options:
  <em>Short options</em> consist of one dash (<code>-</code>) and one alphanumeric
  character.
  <em>Long options</em> begin with two dashes (<code>--</code>) and some
  alphanumeric characters.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Options are case-sensitive.
  Please define <em>lower-case long options</em> only.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The parse-options API allows:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
<em>sticked</em> and <em>separate form</em> of options with arguments.
  <code>-oArg</code> is sticked, <code>-o Arg</code> is separate form.
  <code>--option=Arg</code> is sticked, <code>--option Arg</code> is separate form.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Long options may be <em>abbreviated</em>, as long as the abbreviation
  is unambiguous.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Short options may be bundled, e.g. <code>-a -b</code> can be specified as <code>-ab</code>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Boolean long options can be <em>negated</em> (or <em>unset</em>) by prepending
  <code>no-</code>, e.g. <code>--no-abbrev</code> instead of <code>--abbrev</code>. Conversely,
  options that begin with <code>no-</code> can be <em>negated</em> by removing it.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Options and non-option arguments can clearly be separated using the <code>--</code>
  option, e.g. <code>-a -b --option -- --this-is-a-file</code> indicates that
  <code>--this-is-a-file</code> must not be processed as an option.
</p>

<div class="paragraph"><p>You can also pass NULL instead of a usage array as the fifth parameter of
parse_options(), to avoid displaying a help screen with usage info and
option list.  This should only be done if necessary, e.g. to implement
a limited parser for only a subset of the options that needs to be run
before the full parser, which in turn shows the full help message.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Flags are the bitwise-or of:</p></div>
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>PARSE_OPT_KEEP_DASHDASH</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Keep the <code>--</code> that usually separates options from
        non-option arguments.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Usually the whole argument vector is massaged and reordered.
        Using this flag, processing is stopped at the first non-option
        argument.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>PARSE_OPT_KEEP_ARGV0</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Keep the first argument, which contains the program name.  It&#8217;s
        removed from argv[] by default.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        Keep unknown arguments instead of erroring out.  This doesn&#8217;t
        work for all combinations of arguments as users might expect
        it to do.  E.g. if the first argument in <code>--unknown --known</code>
        takes a value (which we can&#8217;t know), the second one is
        mistakenly interpreted as a known option.  Similarly, if
        <code>PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION</code> is set, the second argument in
        <code>--unknown value</code> will be mistakenly interpreted as a
        non-option, not as a value belonging to the unknown option,
        the parser early.  That&#8217;s why parse_options() errors out if
        both options are set.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<code>PARSE_OPT_NO_INTERNAL_HELP</code>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
        By default, parse_options() handles <code>-h</code>, <code>--help</code> and
        <code>--help-all</code> internally, by showing a help screen.  This option
        turns it off and allows one to add custom handlers for these
        options, or to just leave them unknown.
