Hmm, well the use of external processes to implement such seemingly
basic functionality doesn't exactly help with the argument checking...

... and now that I look (though only briefly :), builtin/read-tree.c
seems almost trivial -- with the bulk of the code devoted to argument
parsing, error reporting, and handling different cases...!

Maybe it would be better to just rewrite "read_empty" (and
"reset_hard"?) in terms of the underlying functions read-tree.c uses?
