Separate VCS command paths with "--" #10483
Conversation
When building a VCS command, there may be ambiguity if a relative path looks like an option, like "-path" or "--path". All of the VCS commands that we use support a bare "--" separator for non-option arguments, which is good practice to apply here. This does not affect the cargo CLI, as it already makes sure to use absolute paths for these calls via `value_of_path()`.

This looks Ok to me, we can revert if I missed something. |
