v2.27.0 (2017-10-24)
** This release raises the minimum required version of Rust to 1.18 **
** This release also contains a very minor breaking change to fix a bug **
The only CLIs affected will be those using unrestrained multiple values and subcommands where the subcommand name can coincide with one of the multiple values.
See the commit 0c223f54 for full details.
Bug Fixes

- fixes a bug where using AppSettings::AllowHyphenValues would allow invalid arguments even when there is no way for them to be valid (77ed4684, closes #1066)
- when an argument requires a value and that value happens to match a subcommand name, its parsed as a value (0c223f54, closes #1031, breaks #, #)
- fixes a bug that prevented number_of_values and default_values to be used together (5eb342a9, closes #1050, #1056)
- fixes a bug that didn't allow args with default values to have conflicts (58b5b4be, closes #1071)

- fixes issues and potential regressions with global args values not being propagated properly or at all (a43f9dd4, closes #1010, #1061, #978)
- fixes a bug where default values are not applied if the option supports zero values (9c248cbf, closes #1047)
Documentation

- Usage Parser
- Value names can now be specified inline, i.e.
-o, --option <FILE> <FILE2> 'some option which takes two files'
- There is now a priority of order to determine the name - This is perhaps the biggest breaking change. See the documentation for full details. Prior to this change, the value name took precedence. Ensure your args are using the proper names (i.e. typically the long or short and NOT the value name) throughout the code
ArgMatches::values_of
returns anValues
now which implementsIterator
(should not break any code)crate_version!
returns&'static str
instead ofString
- Using the
clap_app!
macro requires compiling with theunstable
feature because the syntax could change slightly in the future
