A trivial request, not worth a re-roll in itself: The "prep" topic[1] I
have for Emily's eventual config-based hooks doesn't need to add new
run-command.c modes that are incompatible with ungroup, but that happens
in the next stage of that saga.

When I merge your topic here with that, the end result here is:

	if (opts->ungroup) {
		if (opts->feed_pipe)
			BUG(".ungroup=1 is incompatible with .feed_pipe != NULL");
		if (opts->consume_sideband)
			BUG(".ungroup=1 is incompatible with .consume_sideband != NULL");
	}

	if (!opts->get_next_task)
		BUG("you need to specify a get_next_task function");

	if (opts->duplicate_output && opts->ungroup)
		BUG("duplicate_output and ungroup are incompatible with each other");

So, whether do the incompatibility check before or after
"get_next_task" is arbitrary. If I had to pick, I think doing it after as you're
doing here probably makes more sense.

But would ou mind if this addition of yours were instead:

	if (opts->ungroup) {
		if (opts->duplicate_output)
			BUG("duplicate_output and ungroup are incompatible with each other")
	}

Like I said, a trivial request.

But it will save us the eventual refactoring of that into nested checks
as we add more of these options.

To the extent that we need to mention the seemingly odd looking pattern
we could just say that we're future-proofing this for future
incompatible modes.

This s/int/ssize_t/ change is a good on, but not mentioned in the commit
message. Maybe worth splitting out?

If I revert that back to "int" on top of this entire topic our tests
still pass, so while it's a good change it seems entirely unrelated to
the "duplicate_output" subject of this patch.

Here you're adding braces, which is an otherwise good change (but maybe
worth splitting up, I haven't read the rest of this topic to see if
there's even more style changes).

In this case we should/could have done this change with the pre-image,
before "duplicate_output".

I've read ahead and this topic adds nothing new to this "else" block, so
why the extra indentation instead of:

	} else if (opts->duplicate_output) {
		[...];

> +					opts->duplicate_output(&pp->children[i].err,
> +					       strlen(pp->children[i].err.buf) - n,

Uh, why are we getting the length of strbuf with strlen()? Am I missing
something obvious here, or should this be:

	pp->children[i].err.len - n

?

> +					       pp->children[i].data);

Especially with how otherwise painful the wrapping is here (well, not
very, but we can easily save a \t-indent here).

There's some over-wrapping here, I see some existing code does it, but
for new code we could follow our usual style, which would put this on
two lines.

Here we mostly refer to the previous docs, but the "unless process
specific output is neeed" is very confusing. Without seeing the name or
having read the above I'd think this were some "do_not_pipe_to_dev_null"
feature.

Shouldn't we say "Unless you need to capture the output... leave this at
NULL" or something?

First, you can use for_each_string_list_item() here to make this look
much nicer/simpler.

Second, don't use strlen(s) > 0, just use strlen(s).

Third, you can git rid of the {} braces for the "for" here.

But just getting rid of that strlen() check and printing makes all your
tests pass.

And why is this thing that wants to prove to us that we're capturing the
output wanting to strip successive newlines?

Using a struct string_list for this is also pretty wasteful, we could
just make this a while-loop that printed this string when it sees "\n".

But it's just test code, so we don't care, I think it's fine for it to
be wastful, I just don't see why it's doing what it's doing, and what
it's going out of its way to do isn't tested for here.

Style: ">f" not "> f".
