Subject: cmdline-opts/gen.pl: fix option matching to improve references
X-Git-Tag: curl-7_82_0~197
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fde0925214c41300b50c8136d35031615ecaa6bb;p=thirdparty%2Fcurl.git

cmdline-opts/gen.pl: fix option matching to improve references

Previously it could mistakenly match partial names when there are
options that start with the same prefix, leading to the wrong references
used.

Closes #8299
