I am afraid this is not quite right.

What happens if one of delete/rename/force-create can take a single
argument, or more importantly, if we someday gain another option that can
take zero or one argument and is incompatible with other operating mode?

For example, what happens to this command line with your "git branch":

	$ git branch -v -m boo

The first test passes (no explicit --list), and then you violate the "only
one of these operating mode can be set" assertion you made yourself by
flipping list on, no?

It is a good practice to always run the defaulting tweak *before* checking
options that are mutually incompatible, to catch your own mistake in the
tweaking code.

On top of my previous "multiple patterns allowed" tweak, a replacement
patch to this file may look like this.  I suspect there should be a better
way to represent the mode in a single variable and enforce that there is
only one chosen, but that is left for another day.
