-f: can definitely go
-r: right, we have autoresume now.

There is a subtle issue here. There are two usage scenario:
1. I want to run what --cmd says and nothing else
2. I want to run what --cmd says, in addition to the default
action
The default action being "make all install". For example, -p will pull
from git
before the module is built. Without -p, one would have to issue
--cmd "git pull --rebase && make all install".
The challenge is make it such that developers can find out about that
just by looking
at the options. The interface has to be very intuitive.
Think about the reasons why you did not include --clone.

-o: there is little need for it, even without --modfile.
-l: I can't say, I have never used it. But yes, with modfile, there is
even less need.
