René Scharfe	6acec0380b	parseopt: add OPT_NOOP_NOARG Add OPT_NOOP_NOARG, a helper macro to define deprecated options in a standard way. The help text is taken from the no-op option -r of git revert. The callback could be made to emit a (conditional?) warning later. And we could also add OPT_NOOP (requiring an argument) etc. as needed.

Junio C Hamano	b04ba2bb42	parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN It is natural to expect that an option defined with OPT_BOOLEAN() could be used in this way: int option = -1; /* unspecified */ struct option options[] = { OPT_BOOLEAN(0, "option", &option, "set option"), OPT_END() }; parse_options(ac, av, prefix, options, usage, 0); if (option < 0) ... do the default thing ... else if (!option) ... --no-option was given ... else ... --option was given ... to easily tell three cases apart: - There is no mention of the `--option` on the command line; - The variable is positively set with `--option`; or - The variable is explicitly negated with `--no-option`. Unfortunately, this is not the case. OPT_BOOLEAN() increments the variable every time `--option` is given, and resets it to zero when `--no-option` is given. As a first step to remedy this, introduce a true boolean OPT_BOOL(), and rename OPT_BOOLEAN() to OPT_COUNTUP(). To help transitioning, OPT_BOOLEAN and OPTION_BOOLEAN are defined as deprecated synonyms to OPT_COUNTUP and OPTION_COUNTUP respectively. This is what `db7244b` (parse-options new features., 2007-11-07) from four years ago started by marking OPTION_BOOLEAN as "INCR would have been a better name". Some existing users do depend on the count-up semantics; for example, users of OPT__VERBOSE() could use it to raise the verbosity level with repeated use of `-v` on the command line, but they probably should be rewritten to use OPT__VERBOSITY() instead these days. I suspect that some users of OPT__FORCE() may also use it to implement different level of forcibleness but I didn't check. On top of this patch, here are the remaining clean-up tasks that other people can help: - Look at each hit in "git grep -e OPT_BOOLEAN"; trace all uses of the value that is set to the underlying variable, and if it can proven that the variable is only used as a boolean, replace it with OPT_BOOL(). If the caller does depend on the count-up semantics, replace it with OPT_COUNTUP() instead. - Same for OPTION_BOOLEAN; replace it with OPTION_SET_INT and arrange to set 1 to the variable for a true boolean, and otherwise replace it with OPTION_COUNTUP. - Look at each hit in "git grep -e OPT__VERBOSE -e OPT__QUIET" and see if they can be replaced with OPT__VERBOSITY(). I'll follow this message up with a separate patch as an example. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	13 years ago

Jonathan Nieder	6dcca4d0ea	Documentation/technical: avoid stray backslash in parse-options API docs Due to some unpleasant interaction between the `quote', 'italics', and `monospace` rules, a certain paragraph ends up rendered like so: ‘short` is a character for the short option (e.g. <tt>'e\’</tt> for <tt>-e</tt>, use <tt>0</tt> to omit), Use the {apostrophe} to avoid this. While at it, escape "->" strings: they are meant as a literal two-character C operator, not a right-pointing arrow.

Mark Lodato	73e9da0196	Add an optional argument for --color options Make git-branch, git-show-branch, git-grep, and all the diff-based programs accept an optional argument <when> for --color. The argument is a colorbool: "always", "never", or "auto". If no argument is given, "always" is used; --no-color is an alias for --color=never. This makes the command-line interface consistent with other GNU tools, such as `ls' and `grep', and with the git-config color options. Note that, without an argument, --color and --no-color work exactly as before. To implement this, two internal changes were made: 1. Allow the first argument of git_config_colorbool() to be NULL, in which case it returns -1 if the argument isn't "always", "never", or "auto". 2. Add OPT_COLOR_FLAG(), OPT__COLOR(), and parse_opt_color_flag_cb() to the option parsing library. The callback uses git_config_colorbool(), so color.h is now a dependency of parse-options.c.

Stephen Boyd	df217ed643	parse-opts: add OPT_FILENAME and transition builtins Commit `dbd0f5c` (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd, 2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a minimal fix. OPT_FILENAME is intended to be a more robust fix for the same issue. OPT_FILENAME and its associated enum OPTION_FILENAME are used to represent filename options within the parse options API. This option is similar to OPTION_STRING. If --no is prefixed to the option the filename is unset. If no argument is given and the default value is set, the filename is set to the default value. The difference is that the filename is prefixed with the prefix passed to parse_options() (or parse_options_start()). Update git-apply, git-commit, git-fmt-merge-msg, and git-tag to use OPT_FILENAME with their filename options. Also, rename parse_options_fix_filename() to fix_filename() as it is no longer extern.

Stephen Boyd	3778292017	parse-opts: prepare for OPT_FILENAME To give OPT_FILENAME the prefix, we pass the prefix to parse_options() which passes the prefix to parse_options_start() which sets the prefix member of parse_opts_ctx accordingly. If there isn't a prefix in the calling context, passing NULL will suffice. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago

René Scharfe	2f4b97f910	parseopt: add OPT_NEGBIT Add OPTION_NEGBIT and OPT_NEGBIT, mirroring OPTION_BIT and OPT_BIT. OPT_NEGBIT can be used together with OPT_BIT to define two options that cancel each other out. Note: this patch removes the reminder from the test script because it adds a test for --no-or4 and there already was one for --or4.

René Scharfe	0d260f9a09	parseopt: prevent KEEP_UNKNOWN and STOP_AT_NON_OPTION from being used together As suggested by Junio, disallow the flags PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN and PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION to be turned on at the same time, as a value of an unknown option could be mistakenly classified as a non-option, stopping the parser early. E.g.: git cmd --known --unknown value arg0 arg1 The parser should have stopped at "arg0", but it already stops at "value". This patch makes parse_options() die if the two flags are used in combination. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago

Junio C Hamano	530e741c72	Start preparing the API documents. Most of them are still stubs, but the procedure to build the HTML documentation, maintaining the index and installing the end product are there. I placed names of people who are likely to know the most about the topic in the stub files, so that volunteers will know whom to ask questions as needed.
