Option syntax is often used to represent exclusive commands, especially when those commands need to be distinguished from free-form arg words. The "git checkout" command is another example of this in git, and there are plenty of non-git examples of such a use of option syntax around. Such a syntax makes it easier to have a default action while still taking a free-form arg. I personally think that using option syntax for its behavior choices would be preferable with git stash. ..wayne.. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
