-m and -F are not encouraged, because they are not offered (short
options in general are never offered by the completion script).
However, their presence or absence is taken into account to offer
something sensible: refs after 'git notes edit <TAB>', files after
'git notes edit -F <TAB>'.  Note, that I chose 'edit' here, because
currently it's the only subcommand taking '-F', but it will actually
work the same way with the upcoming 'add' and 'append' subcommands.


Best,
Gábor
