Sorry, but I cannot parse the problem description, "(instead of and)" part.

Why is it a better thing to do to ignore these options, instead of
detecting the situation and error it out, saying "you are initially
cloning, don't say --rebase"?

We don't allow bash-ism outside POSIX shell in our primary Porcelain set
(the rule is looser for stuff in contrib/), so "local" is out.

Here is how to write the above more concisely, efficiently and portably.

	case "$2;" in
        *";$1;"*)
        	echo yes ;;
        *)
        	echo no ;;
	esac

The trailing ';' takes care of the case where cloned_modules has only one
element, in which case you have ";name" in "$2".  No need for a loop.
