Re: [PATCH v2 1/3] archive: add shortcuts for --format and --prefix

Is this really necessary?

I see little benefit from giving either of these a shorter alternative,
and a huge downside for potential confusion, especially because nobody
else uses -p for --prefix, and other commands use -p for something
completely different.

The same deal for -f, but it is probably worse because it is typically
used for --force.
