Linux man command about [OPTIONS]

Let's say git add command.When I input man git add,I get its page.

   SYNOPSIS
   git add [--verbose | -v] [--dry-run | -n] [--force | -f] [--interactive | -i] [--patch | -p]
             [--edit | -e] [--[no-]all | --[no-]ignore-removal | [--update | -u]]
             [--intent-to-add | -N] [--refresh] [--ignore-errors] [--ignore-missing]
             [--] [<pathspec>...]

I have two quesions:

git add --verbose is same as git add -v?
for other command such as git,python , --fullNameA is same as -A? (fullNameA is abbreviated to A)

Solution

Each option in [--xxx | -x] characters are the same, so [--verbose | -v] means that --verbose will do the same as -v. This is true for all the man pages.
