Whew.  That's a lot of changes.

Is this just "I am using parseopt because I can", or "I want to do this
first because I am planning to do such and such things to this program,
and the current mess needs to be cleaned up first before doing so"?

I am asking this _not_ because I'd want to reject the patch if the answer
is former.

You can have either (no type specified, int, bool, bool-or-int) at the
end.  Using three independent variables does not feel right.

Hint: OPTION_SET_INT.

all matching variables?

new variable?

Please don't introduce a new noun "option" that has never been used to
mean a "configuration variable" in git documentation.  It unnecessarily
confuses everybody.

get-color is used to get the defined color for a given slot.  Please do not
rename it to "name" (see the original).

get-colorbool is used to get the boolean setting for a given configuration
variable.  Please do not rename it to "name" (see the original).

The name of the character is NUL (with a single el).  I'd prefer this to
say either "use machine readable output format", or "terminate values with NUL byte".

Why?

Hmph.  I wonder if use of OPT_BIT() and HAS_MULTI_BITS() make this simpler.

This part did not lose argc error checking, but...

You do not check argc here (nor in many "else if" below) to make sure you
have sufficient number of arguments.  "git config --unset" is now allowed
to segfault, and "git config --unset a b c d e f" can silently ignore
excess arguments for example?

This is actively worse than the original that uses a separate helper
function in readability.

Likewise.

Overall, with the same number of lines, we lost a lot of error checking in
exchange for an ability to say "git config --remove-sec" instead of "git
config --remove-section", and "git config --help" may give an easier to
read message.

Given that "git config" is primarily meant for script use, this particular
round does not look like a good tradeoff to me.
