Re: [PATCH v2 4/5] parse-options: introduce `OPTION_UNSIGNED`

Hi Patrick

On 15/04/2025 13:14, Patrick Steinhardt wrote:
We have two generic ways to parse integers in the "parse-options"
subsytem:

   - `OPTION_INTEGER` parses a signed integer.

   - `OPTION_MAGNITUDE` parses an unsigned integer, but it also
     interprets suffixes like "k" or "g".

Notably missing is a middle ground that parses unsigned integers without
interpreting suffixes. Introduce a new `OPTION_UNSIGNED` option type to
plug this gap. This option type will be used in subsequent commits.

I think this is a useful addition. I wonder about the way it handles negative values though. For types narrower than uintmax_t "-1" will be rejected but large negative values that parse as small positive numbers will be accepted. Perhaps we should explicitly reject strings starting with "-" as we do in git_parse_ulong() which is used by OPTION_MAGNITUDE. This patch also needs the fix from patch 2 to detect overflows for uintmax_t.

Best Wishes

Phillip
