From: D. Ben Knoble Date: Sun, 02 Nov 2025 16:17:44 GMT Subject: [PATCH 1/5] parseopt: fix :(optional) at command line to only ignore missing files Message-ID: <9ec696eaac647aa01466b101129da2b12ef5dbd5.1762100242.git.ben.knoble+github@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: Unlike the configuration option magic, the parseopt code also ignores empty files: compare implementations from ccfcaf399f (parseopt: values of pathname type can be prefixed with :(optional), 2025-09-28) and 749d6d166d (config: values of pathname type can be prefixed with :(optional), 2025-09-28). Unify the 2 by not ignoring empty files, which is less surprising and the intended semantics from the first patch for config. Suggested-by: Phillip Wood Signed-off-by: D.
