[PATCH] D60439: [llvm-objcopy] Accept --long-option but not -long-option

[Jake Ehrlich via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

I feel like we didn't get a solid conclusion here but that the general consensus is that this change is more ideal. I think the argument that this is incompatible with merged short options and that that might have compatibility issues is a strong argument personally. The other not-quite-conclusion-but-leaning-that-way seems to be that we can't really make this same choice for all binaries. Do we feel like the conclusion of the llvm-dev post supports yet further fragmenting the tools? I don't know and I'm concerned about making that choice. We have to way tool consistency with GNU compatibility here and that's a hard choice. I'll add an email later to see if we can flesh this out more.
