Comment (by niklasmohrin):
I believe the same problem exists with the `CommandParser` used by
subcommands: At the end of `ManagementUtility.execute` (see 1), the
subcommand is run with
`self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv)`. In
`run_from_argv`, a parser is created with `self.argv[0]` via `parser =
self.create_parser(argv[0], argv[1])` (see 2). Thus, when running `python
-m django check --help` (or any other subcommand), the output starts with
`usage: __main__.py check`.
Maybe it would be better to just update `self.argv[0]` in
`ManagementUtility` instead of having `prog_name`?
Either way, should I open a separate ticket and/or implement the proposed
change?
