Matthieu already mentioned that this should use imperative mood:

Imperative:

    Use the parse-options API rather than a hand-rolled
    option parser.

That the code becomes more compact is a nice result of this change,
but not particularly important, thus not really worth a mention in the
commit message.

Also, to what "programs" does this refer? And what does "now" mean here?

The entire "When ... parameter" bit is redundant, isn't it? Why not
just say "Perform only..."?

Style: Drop the extra blank line.

Possible rewrite: "exit immediately after initial ref advertisement"

Use of OPT_BOOL introduces a --no-strict option which didn't exist
before. Does this need to be documented? (Genuine question.)
