Thanks. Reading through the code, I came to the same conclusion: we
shouldn't be looking at --no-* at all if we are NONEG. I think the
change in error message is acceptable.
It is a little bit annoying that builtin-branch needs to have this as
two separate options in the first place. But it wants to be able to do
--no-merged with an argument, which is not currently possible with just
a negation of --merged. I don't know if it is worth adding an
OPT_NEGARG.
Below is what I'm going to commit. Can I get your Signed-off-by?

Subject: [PATCH] parse-opt: ignore negation of OPT_NONEG for ambiguity checks
parse_long_opt always matches both --opt and --no-opt for any option
"opt", and only get_value checks whether --no-opt is actually valid.
Since the options for git branch contains both "no-merged" and "merged"
there are two matches for --no-merge, but no exact match. With this
patch the negation of a NONEG option is rejected earlier, but it changes
the error message from "option `no-opt' isn't available" to "unknown
option `no-opt'".
[jk: added test]
