parse-options.[ch]: consistently use "enum parse_opt_flags"
Use the "enum parse_opt_flags" instead of an "int flags" as arguments to the various functions in parse-options.c. Even though this is an enum bitfield there's there's a benefit to doing this when it comes to the wider C ecosystem. E.g. the GNU debugger (gdb) will helpfully detect and print out meaningful enum labels in this case. Here's the output before and after when breaking in "parse_options()" after invoking "git stash show": Before: (gdb) p flags $1 = 9 After: (gdb) p flags $1 = (PARSE_OPT_KEEP_DASHDASH | PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN) Of course as noted in[1] there's a limit to this smartness, i.e. manually setting it with unrelated enum labels won't be caught. There are some third-party extensions to do more exhaustive checking[2], perhaps we'll be able to make use of them sooner than later. We've also got prior art using this pattern in the codebase. See e.g. "enum bloom_filter_computed" added in 312cff52074 (bloom: split 'get_bloom_filter()' in two, 2020-09-16) and the "permitted" enum added in ce910287e72 (add -p: fix checking of user input, 2020-08-17). 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/87mtnvvj3c.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com/ 2. https://github.com/sinelaw/elfs-clang-plugins/blob/master/enums_conversion/README.md Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
