Subject: [PATCH v2 5/9] help: note the option name on option incompatibility
Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2022 20:38:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <patch-v2-5.9-e5c49089106-20220221T193708Z-avarab@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover-v2-0.9-00000000000-20220221T193708Z-avarab@gmail.com>

Change the errors added in d35d03cf93e (help: simplify by moving to
OPT_CMDMODE(), 2021-09-22) to quote the offending option at the user
when invoked as e.g.:

    git help --guides garbage

Now instead of:

    fatal: this option doesn't take any other arguments

We'll emit:

    fatal: the '--guides' option doesn't take any non-option arguments

Let's also rename the function, as it will be extended to do other
checks that aren't "no extra argc" in a subsequent commit.
