------------------------------
Labels: beginner (was: )
> Transition to use dashes for gflag flag separator
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KUDU-1984
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1984
> Project: Kudu
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation, util
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Dan Burkert
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: beginner
>
> As per a recent [dev list
> discussion|https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/14cfce88cb6af7b51b5ed801f9b7212b7e7ff34b7858eec88cff0cd8@%3Cdev.kudu.apache.org%3E]
> we should transition to using and advertising dashes instead of underscores
> for multi-word gflag options.
> A few things need to happen to make this a seamless transition, ideally
> landing in a single release cycle:
> * Documentation in the /docs directory needs to be updated to use dashes.
> * {{--help}} output needs to be changed to show dashes. This will require
> patching gflags. The upstream project would likely be receptive to such a
> patch, since they just landed support for dashes.
