Something like the patch below.
I admit this isn't buggy _now_, so this is potentially just churn. It does make further patches look nicer, though (they don't have to add apparently meaningless OPT_END() slots).

Subject: [PATCH] parse_options: allocate a new array when concatenating
In exactly one callers (builtin/revert.c), we build up the options list dynamically from multiple arrays. We do so by manually inserting "filler" entries into one array, and then copying the other array into the allocated space.
This is tedious and error-prone, as you have to adjust the filler any time the second array is modified (although we do at least check and die() when the counts do not match up).
Instead, let's just allocate a new array.
