Subject: [PATCH] getopt: Add support for '--' to stop option parsing
Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2016 10:32:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1469435571-31279-1-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In some cases when commands have optional arguments it is necessary
to explicitly stop option parsing after the last nonpositonal option.
Add support for '--' to accomplish this as done in getopt(3) aswell.
