This commit is missing an explanation of the problem. When does it
trigger? Which subsystem triggers it? Why didn't we observe the issue
beforehand? And given that the solution seems to be a bit more complex
it should also explain how you're fixing the issue.
Furthermore, the subject of such a commit should be prefixed with the
subsystem in which you're fixing the issue. So in your case,
"parse-options:".
I'd recommend reading through "Documentation/MyFirstContribution.adoc",
which explains all of this.

Style: the opening brace should be on its own line.

It's not really clear what this is doing. Is the intent to only change
this this value for the last option? If so, why?

Hm. I'm at a loss what we're solving here. All of this really should be
explained in the commit message to give context to the reviewer.

Okay. So the intent seems to be that we start storing any options that
we don't understand?

Can't we expand `test-tool parse-options` instead of introducing a new
helper?

Missing newline.

This should be done inside `test_expect_success` itself.

Okay, so the memory leak seems to happen when handling unknown options
indeed, as I started to expect after the middle of this patch. In any
case, this commit really needs to be polished to have a proper commit
message that sets the stage for the reviewer.
