--flags::
- Do not output non-flag parameters.
+ Do not output non-flag parameters which are not also revisions.
+ +
+ If specified, this option causes 'git rev-parse' to stop
+ interpreting remaining arguments as options for its own
+ consumption. As such, this option should be specified
+ after all other options that 'git rev-parse' is expected
+ to interpret.
--no-flags::
Do not output flag parameters.

+ If both `--flags` and `--no-flags` are specified, the first
+ option specified wins and the other option is treated like
+ a non-option argument.
--default <arg>::
If there is no parameter given by the user, use `<arg>`
