[PATCH v4 2/3] completion: add __git_get_option_value helper

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This function allows to search the commmand line and config
files for an option, long and short, with mandatory value.

The function would return e.g. for the command line
"git status -uno --untracked-files=all" the result
"all" regardless of the config option.
