v2.27.0 (2017-10-24)
** This release raises the minimum required version of Rust to 1.18 **
** This release also contains a very minor breaking change to fix a bug **
The only CLIs affected will be those using unrestrained multiple values and subcommands where the
subcommand name can coincide with one of the multiple values.
See the commit 0c223f54 for full details.
Bug Fixes
- Values from global args are now propagated UP and DOWN!
- fixes a bug where using AppSettings::AllowHyphenValues would allow invalid arguments even when there is no way for them to be valid (77ed4684, closes #1066)
- when an argument requires a value and that value happens to match a subcommand name, its parsed as a value (0c223f54, closes #1031, breaks #, #)
- fixes a bug that prevented number_of_values and default_values to be used together (5eb342a9, closes #1050, #1056)
- fixes a bug that didn't allow args with default values to have conflicts (58b5b4be, closes #1071)
- fixes a panic when using global args and calling App::get_matches_from_safe_borrow multiple times (d86ec797, closes #1076)
- fixes issues and potential regressions with global args values not being propagated properly or at all (a43f9dd4, closes #1010, #1061, #978)
- fixes a bug where default values are not applied if the option supports zero values (9c248cbf, closes #1047)
Documentation
- adds addtional blurbs about using multiples with subcommands (03455b77)
- updates the docs to reflect changes to global args and that global args values can now be propagated back up the stack (ead076f0)
- add html_root_url attribute (e67a061b)
- sync README version numbers with crate version (5536361b)
Improvements
- args that have require_delimiter(true) is now reflected in help and usage strings (dce61699, closes #1052)
- if all subcommands are hidden, the subcommands section of the help message is no longer displayed (4ae7b046, closes #1046)
Breaking Changes
- when an argument requires a value and that value happens to match a subcommand name, its parsed as a value (0c223f54, closes #1031, breaks #, #)
Deprecations
- AppSettings::PropagateGlobalValuesDown: this setting is no longer required to propagate values down or up (2bb5ddce)
