I think that is fine to split it like this, but you would want to update
the commit message above. Probably just remove those two cases and say
something like:

  Note that you cannot actually trigger STATUS_FORMAT_LONG, as we do
  not yet have "--long"; that will come in a follow-on patch.

And then move the reasoning for how "--long" works with each case into
the commit message of the next patch.

Other than that, the patches look OK to me.
