Getting rid of "config_set", which was an extra variable that kept track of where "force" came from, does make the logic cleaner, I guess. What we want to happen is that one of -i/-n/-f is required when clean.requireForce is *not* unset (i.e. 0 <= require_force). >> + if (!force && !interactive) { The require-force takes effect only when neither force or interactive is given, so the new code structure puts the above obvious conditional around "do we complain due to requireForce?" logic.

As you said, I do not think it matters too much either way to the end-users where the truth setting of clean.requireForce came from, either due to the default or the user explicitly configuring. So unifying to a single message may be helpful to both readers and translators. clean.requireForce is true; unless interactive, -f is required might be a bit shorter and more to the point. > The last two cases can be coalesced into a single case (the last one), > because the difference in the messages does not bring more information > to the user. Yeah. Thanks.
