> So I'll move this to positive review, but only because the release
manager is the one who wrote it, one who is ''very'' diligent in checking
whether things apply :)
Or at least the one who will have to deal with the consequences if it
doesn't.
> By the way, why are we considering `-option` deprecated in favor of
`--option`? This is the sort of thing that definitely seems arbitrary,
especially if both of them work...
This is essentially a standard set by GNU. For example, `ls --help` will
work but `ls -help` will be interpreted as `ls -h -e -l -p`. But even GNU
has exceptions, for example GCC has all single-dash options.
