Subject: [PATCH] clone: detect and fail on excess parameters
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 10:53:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vfxtcsbis.fsf@gitster.siamese.dyndns.org> (raw)

"git clone [options] $src $dst excess-garbage" simply ignored
excess-garbage without giving any diagnostic message.  Fix it.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

 * I noticed it while trying "git clone --reference $there $src $dst" with
   various combinations of options, and in one case I errorneously removed
   "--reference" without removing $there.  It happily created a clone of
   the reference repository under a funnily named directory whose name
   looked like a URL.
