Wouldn't these and the rest be easier to read as:

	struct reset_head_opts ropts = {
		.oid = &opts->orig_head,
                 .branch = opts->head_name,
                 .default_reflog_action = DEFAULT_REFLOG_ACTION,
         };

I did start out doing something like that but changed to the current style as I felt it made it easier to convert the calls correctly and for reviewers to verify that the conversion is correct when the deletion of the old function arguments is adjacent to the insertion of the new struct assignments and the assignments are in the same order as the old function arguments.

....

...and then for some of the ones like this "ropts.head_msg = buf.buf"
assignment you just do that one immediately after the strbuf_addf() or
whatever modifies it.

That way it's clear what options we get from the function arguments and
can populate right away, and which ones we need to run some code in the
function before we can update "ropts".

I'm not immediately clear why that matters. My priority was to keep the assignments in the same order an the old function arguments to make the conversion and review easier.

[Ditto for the elided parts below]

It's nice to make these sort of things an enum type for the reasons
explained in 3f9ab7ccdea (parse-options.[ch]: consistently use "enum
parse_opt_flags", 2021-10-08), i.e. gdb and the like will give you the
labels in the debugger.

Yeah that's true but I'm not actually touching the flags here, just adding comments.
