This write_options opts is used later in this call. err = reftable_new_stack(&st, dir, &opts); and "git grep reftable_new_stack" finds many hits, almost all in t/unit-tests/ hierarchy, only two among many of them passing NULL as the "use the default set of options" signal. And majority of them initialize their opts like so: struct reftable_write_options opts = { 0 }; So I agree that this one should pass NULL to be more explicit that we do not exercise any special features from the API, but so should many other existing callers that pass such meaningless &opts, I would think. Thanks.
