Is the `--config` flag deprecated for `devspace sync` starting v6.0?

[MaxSchambach]

I've noticed that all documentation of the --config flag in devspace sync have disappeared, from both the CLI manual as well as the user documentation starting version 6.0. However, the flag still works and I do not see anything related in the release notes / breaking changes notes.

Either way, I'm left wondering, whether this implies that the --config flat is now deprecated and should not be used anymore?

In fact, no deprecation warning is shown, and not using the flag actually prints a hint [1] about using it, so I am a bit confused...

[1] "warn If you want to use the sync paths from devspace.yaml, use the --config=devspace.yaml flag for this command."

@MaxSchambach Hello! Yes, this flag has been deprecated, however we don't have any pending plans to remove it either. As this (hidden) description implies, you may use the DEVSPACE_CONFIG environment variable instead.

FWIW, I still use this flag frequently when testing things out.

Thank you for the quick response! Alright, I'll keep using it then. Not passing --config for me also yields the warning I mentioned above, which I belive originates here. I think that's what confused me in the first place. If the flag is deprecated, that warning should point to the env variable instead, in my opinion :)

EDIT: using devpsace v6.3.3
