52 typedef enum parse_opt_result parse_opt_ll_cb(struct parse_opt_ctx_t *ctx,
53 const struct option *opt,
54 const char *arg, int unset);
57 * `type`::
58 * holds the type of the option, you must have an OPTION_END last in your
59 * array.
61 * `short_name`::
62 * the character to use as a short option name, '\0' if none.
64 * `long_name`::
65 * the long option name, without the leading dashes, NULL if none.
67 * `value`::
68 * stores pointers to the values to be filled.
70 * `argh`::
71 * token to explain the kind of argument this option wants. Keep it
72 * homogeneous across the repository. Should be wrapped by N_() for
73 * translation.
75 * `help`::
76 * the short help associated to what the option does.
77 * Must never be NULL (except for OPTION_END).
78 * OPTION_GROUP uses this pointer to store the group header.
79 * Should be wrapped by N_() for translation.
81 * `flags`::
82 * mask of parse_opt_option_flags.
83 * PARSE_OPT_OPTARG: says that the argument is optional (not for BOOLEANs)
84 * PARSE_OPT_NOARG: says that this option does not take an argument
85 * PARSE_OPT_NONEG: says that this option cannot be negated
86 * PARSE_OPT_HIDDEN: this option is skipped in the default usage, and
87 * shown only in the full usage.
88 * PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT: says that this option will take the default
89 * value if no argument is given when the option
90 * is last on the command line. If the option is
91 * not last it will require an argument.
92 * Should not be used with PARSE_OPT_OPTARG.
93 * PARSE_OPT_NODASH: this option doesn't start with a dash.
94 * PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP: says that argh shouldn't be enclosed in brackets
95 * (i.e. '<argh>') in the help message.
96 * Useful for options with multiple parameters.
97 * PARSE_OPT_NOCOMPLETE: by default all visible options are completable
98 * by git-completion.bash. This option suppresses that.
99 * PARSE_OPT_COMP_ARG: this option forces to git-completion.bash to
100 * complete an option as --name= not --name even if
101 * the option takes optional argument.
103 * `callback`::
104 * pointer to the callback to use for OPTION_CALLBACK
106 * `defval`::
107 * default value to fill (*->value) with for PARSE_OPT_OPTARG.
108 * OPTION_{BIT,SET_INT} store the {mask,integer} to put in the value when met.
109 * CALLBACKS can use it like they want.
111 * `ll_callback`::
112 * pointer to the callback to use for OPTION_LOWLEVEL_CALLBACK
