parse-options: recognize abbreviated negated option with arg
Giving an argument to an option that doesn't take one causes Git to
report that error specifically:
$ git rm --dry-run=bogus
error: option `dry-run' takes no value
The same is true when the option is negated or abbreviated:
$ git rm --no-dry-run=bogus
error: option `no-dry-run' takes no value
$ git rm --dry=bogus
error: option `dry-run' takes no value
Not so when doing both, though:
$ git rm --no-dry=bogus
error: unknown option `no-dry=bogus'
usage: git rm [-f | --force] [-n] [-r] [--cached] [--ignore-unmatch]
(Rest of the usage message omitted.)
Improve consistency and usefulness of the error message by recognizing
abbreviated negated options even if they have a (most likely bogus)
argument. With this patch we get:
$ git rm --no-dry=bogus
error: option `no-dry-run' takes no value
