Also, because I'm quite new to cap3 as well I might be missing the option
switch that allows you to define a setting on the command line. --help
though does not give any indication to it's existence.
No, you're not missing anything. Rather than a broad discussion about
settings on the command line, I'd rather see us solve the underlying
problem, which appears to be "I need different settings when I run Cap"
which implies that maybe more than one stage is in order, or a setup task
which prepares the environment, i.e:
cap production mysetup_a deploy
Where mysetup_a is a version controlled task definition which sets up what
you need (in exactly the same way that `production` is a task which sets up
what deploy needs.)
Issues to discuss problems, and solutions welcome at GH.
