Have you considered pulling the parse-options parser from git into
libgit2? It's one of the more modularized and lib-ified bits of code in
git already.

Yes and No. We have already copied some code from git : parse-option,
the error handling functions, a part of the run-command block and a
part of the compatibility layer. To my mind, there is no reason to
pull it into libgit2 as it's only a client feature that works on
strings, and libgit2 does not aim at being a client, only a git
library.

Yeah, good point. Definitely it should not be part of the libgit2
library itself.
