A bit more verbose still: Document the negative form on its own line with a generated description -- requires no new syntax: -v, --invert-match show non-matching lines --no-invert-match opposite of --invert-match, default -I, --no-index find in contents not managed by git --index opposite of --no-index, defaultI would expect _("opposite of %s, default") is acceptable by l10n folks, and assuming it is, the above would be a good approach.
I was seeing what is likely to be in the -rc1 that will happen in next week, and noticed that this discussion is left unconcluded. I am tempted to declare that the latest iteration that shows the negation of "--no-foo" as "--[no-]no-foo" is "good enough" for now, and leave the above improvement as one potential future direction. Objections? Otherwise the 5-patch series will be in 'next'. Thanks.
