1 Hi,
2 thanks for your continuous work, just an implementation detail, it may be
3 possible to avoid a new option reusing the current autounmask one?
4
5 instead of
6 --autounmask [ y | n ]
7 --autounmask-only [ y | n ]
8 --autounmask-write [ y | n ]
9 --autounmask-continue [ y | n ]
10
11 something like:
12 --autounmask [ y | n | only | write | continue]
13
14 especially if these options make no sense used together
