> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-6472
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cli
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.10.7
> Reporter: Jarek Potiuk
> Assignee: zhongjiajie
> Priority: Major
>
> We have some "short" options that are really "long" ones: namely -int and -sd
> in the run task. This is against the idea of short and long options in Unix
> (and argparse follows that). The main reason to have short options is that
> you can combine short options:
> {{airflow task run -iAlm}}
> When you have more than one letter "short" options this might become quickly
> ambiguous. We do not have -s yet but if we add few more options this might
> become a problem.
> Also in the argparse documentation
> [https://docs.python.org/2/library/argparse.html] it's mentioned that short
> options should be single character only.\
> This should be fixed.
