Global Options

These options may be used with any command, and may appear in front of any command. (e.g. brz --profile help).

--version

Print the version number. Must be supplied before the command.

--no-aliases

Do not process command aliases when running this command.

--builtin

Use the built-in version of a command, not the plugin version. This does not suppress other plugin effects.

--no-plugins

Do not process any plugins.

--no-l10n

Do not translate messages.

--concurrency

Number of processes that can be run concurrently (selftest).

--profile

Profile execution using the hotshot profiler.

--lsprof

Profile execution using the lsprof profiler.

--lsprof-file

Profile execution using the lsprof profiler, and write the results to a specified file. If the filename ends with “.txt”, text format will be used. If the filename either starts with “callgrind.out” or end with “.callgrind”, the output will be formatted for use with KCacheGrind. Otherwise, the output will be a pickle.

--coverage

Generate line coverage report in the specified directory.

-Oname=value Override the name config option setting it to value for

the duration of the command. This can be used multiple times if several options need to be overridden.
