You are missing a SP after the comma in "pattern,excluding" above.

The above description is slightly different from what "git describe
--help" has.  If they are described differently on purpose (e.g. you
may have made "%(describe:abbrev=0)" not to show only the closest
tag, unlike "git describe --abbrev=0"), the differences should be
spelled out more explicitly.  If the behaviours of the option here
and the corresponding one there are meant to be the same, then
either using exactly the same text, or a much abbreviated
description with a note referring to the option description of "git
describe", would help the readers better.  E.g.

    abbrev=<number>;; use at least <number> hexadecimal digits; see
    the corresponding option in linkgit:git-describe[1] for details.

which would make it clear that no behavioral differences are meant.

This new section becomes a part of an existing "labeled list"
(asciidoctor calls the construct "description list").  Starting the
new heading this patch adds with 'describe[:options]::' makes sense.
It is in line with the existing text.

I however think that the list of options is better done as a nested
description list.  Documentation/config/color.txt has an example you
can imitate.  See how slots of color.grep.<slot> are described
there.

The name "tagbool" sounds strange, as we are not saying
"lengthint".

I am a bit confused by this structure, actually, as I cannot quite
guess from the data structure alone how you intend to use it.  Does
this give a good representation for the piece of data you are trying
to capture?

For example, %(describe:tags=no,abbrev=4) would become a single atom
with 0 in .tagbool and 4 in .length, but what does the .option
member get?

This is not how you accept a Boolean.

"1", "0", "yes", "no", "true", "false", "on", "off" are all valid
values and you use git_parse_maybe_bool() to parse them.

Even though the documentation patch we saw earlier said "may be
followed by a colon and zero or more comma-separated options", this
seems to expect only and exactly one option.  Indeed, if we run the
resulting git like "git for-each-ref --format='%(describe:tags=0,abbrev=4)'"
you will get complaints from this parser.

The implementation needs redesigning as the data structure is not
equipped to handle more than one options given at the same time, as
we saw earlier.

This looks overly expensive.  Why aren't we looking at the atom_type
and see if it is ATOM_DESCRIBE here?

Again, it is apparent here that the atom takes only one option at most.

I'll stop here.

Thanks.
