Would using sha1_array save us from having to create our own data
structure? As a bonus, it can do O(lg n) lookups, though I seriously
doubt anyone will provide a large number of "--points-at".

Then this could go away in favor of sha1_array_clear.

And this can drop all of the memory management bits, like:

  unsigned char sha1[20];

  if (!arg)
          return error(_("missing <object>"));
  if (get_sha1(arg, sha1))
          return error(_("malformed object name '%s'"), arg);
  sha1_array_append(opt->value, sha1);
  return 0;

Also, should you check "unset"? When we have options that build a list,
usually doing "--no-foo" will clear the list. E.g., this:

  git tag --points-at=foo --points-at=bar --no-points-at --points-at=baz

should look only for "baz".

Sorry, I threw a lot of object lookup code at you last time, so I think
my point may have been lost in the noise. But I think this is slightly
nicer as:

  static int tag_points_at(struct sha1_array *sa,
                           const unsigned char *sha1)
  {
          struct object *obj = parse_object(sha1);
          if (!obj)
                  return 0; /* or probably we should even just die() */
          if (obj->type != OBJ_TAG)
                  return 0;
          if (sha1_array_lookup(sa, ((struct tag *)obj)->tagged->sha1) < 0)
                  return 0;
          return 1;
  }

I.e., using parse_object lets you avoid dealing with memory management
yourself. And as a bonus, it will reuse the cached information if you
happen to have already parsed that object (not likely in typical
repositories, but a huge win in certain pathological cases, like repos
storing shared objects and refs for a large number of forks).

I think you can drop the LASTARG_DEFAULT here, as it is no longer
optional, no?
