How to get global options in executable subcommand?

[JounQin]

// main.js

program
  .option('-f, --force [boolean]')
  .command('new', 'scaffolding')

program.command('dev', function() {
  console.log(this.optsWithGlobals().force) // works as expected
})

program.parse(progress.argv)

// cli-new.js

// `--force` options unavailable in `progress.argv`

I know there is passThroughOptions, but when I enable it, cli dev --force will stop working in favor of cli --force dev...

There isn't any built-in support for passing global options through to executable subcommands. As in your example, there is support for globals in commands with action-handlers.

Defining environment variables might be one way of passing through the information.
