just curious, I'm wondering why isn't the check for "-h" done in the
argv loop later on? I see this being done already in the builtins
diff, log, ls-remote and update-index.

Also, unlike grep, -h <arg> is not an option we're looking out for, so
I'm not sure if we should allow the user to mix -h with a valid set of
arguments (which is what Johnathan's patch would allow).
