In looking at other help output, I noticed that they use two spaces, in
place of clap's 4, and it doesn't suffer from legibility. If it
doesn't make the output worse, let's go ahead and make it as dense so we
fit more content on the screen.
This is a part of #4132
The setting was added to resolve#769. The reason it was optional is out
of concern for applications with a lot of positional arguments. I think
those cases are rare enough that we should just push people to override
the usage. Positional arguments are generally important enough, even if
optional, to show.
As a side effect, this fixed some bugs with
`dont_collapse_args_in_usage` where it would repeat an argument in a
smart usage.
As a side effect, smart usage now shows `--` when it should
I see them fulfilling two roles
- A form of bolding
- As a callback to their placeholder in usage
However, it is a bit of an unpolished look and no other CLI seems to do
it. This looks a bit more proefessional. We have colored help for
formatting and I think the sections relation to usage will be clear
enough.
This is a part of #2870 and is prep for #1041
Oddly enough, this dropped the binary size by 200 Bytes
Compared to `HEAD~` on `06_rustup`:
- build: 6.21us -> 6.23us
- parse: 7.55us -> 8.17us
- parse_sc: 7.95us -> 7.65us
`Arg::exclusive` is just another way of defining conflicts, so a
present-exclusive arg should override required like other conflicts.
Instead of going through the message of enumerating all other arguments
as exclusive, I shortcutted it and special case exclusive in the
required check like we do with conflicts. The big downside is the
implicit coupling between the code paths rather than having a consistent
abstraction for covering conflicts.
This isn't a breaking change because if someone defined an exclusive arg
as a sibling to a required arg, the exclusive arg could never be used,
it always errored, and so no valid application can be written with it.
Fixes#3595
We were only tracking the last value source (default, env, cli, etc).
This works for args because they only come from one source. Groups
however can come from multiple sources and this was making us treat a
group with a default value as being completely from defaults despite
some values maybe being from the commandline.
We now track the highest precedence value for a group.
Fixes#3330
This is prep for moving the derive tests. Besides organizing the test
folder for each API, this should reduce link time at the cost of
re-compiling more when a test changes.
