Every. Goddamn. TIME. I try to figure out the version of a tool I’m using or try to run it with verbose output, I pick the wrong flag. Between -v
, -V
, --version
, --verbose
, and the god-forsaken -version
(looking at you Java), it seems to be evenly split across all packages based on my totally statistically significant sampling. GNU says that --version
should ALWAYS output the current version, but we all know how much developers love standards.
