Subject: [PATCH v2 7/9] help: error if [-a|-g|-c] and [-i|-m|-w] are combined
Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2022 20:38:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <patch-v2-7.9-992ee6580ac-20220221T193708Z-avarab@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover-v2-0.9-00000000000-20220221T193708Z-avarab@gmail.com>

Add more sanity checking to "git help" usage by erroring out if these
man viewer options are combined with incompatible command-modes that
will never use these documentation viewers.

This continues the work started in d35d03cf93e (help: simplify by
moving to OPT_CMDMODE(), 2021-09-22) of adding more sanity checking to
"git help". Doing this allows us to clarify the "SYNOPSIS" in the
documentation, and the "git help -h" output.
