Subject: Parse --o in format-patch
Date: Fri, 28 Jun 2013 18:05:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130628160459.GA16832@paksenarrion.iveqy.com> (raw)

Hi,
I don't quite manage to figure out gits argv parsing and would need some
help on the way.

I want:
git format-patch -o outdir HEAD~

Work exactly the way it does now, setting output_directory to outdir.
But I also want
git format-patch -o HEAD~

to set output_directory with a NULL value so that I can assign a default
value to it. Is that even possible with the current argv-parsing implementation?

The currect argv parser is using OPTION_CALLBACK so I thought that that
callback should be able to determine if there was an outdir supplied or
not.

Or is the correct solution to also add a bolean type OPTION_BOOLEAN for
-o?
