These are both real addresses, but for send-mail I would not want to use
my work account. I hope this is not a problem.

Please study item (5) "Sign your work" in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches and sign off your work.

I followed the recommendations to submitting work, and in the first
round signing is discouraged.

AFAIR, it was a deliberate decision that potentially destructive command
line options are not included in command completions. In the list given,
I find these:

quoted

 - reset: --merge --mixed --hard --soft --patch --keep

My bad, I only added --keep, which should be fine. As to these options

quoted

 - apply: --unsafe-paths
 - rm: --force

let's wait for further comments, but I won't cling to it.

Additionally, these options are only for internal purposes, but I may be
wrong:

quoted

 - archive: --remote= --exec=

These may in fact be too exotic and just clutter the command line. Best
they are removed.
