[dependabot]

Bumps commander from 12.1.0 to 13.0.0.

Release notes

Sourced from commander's releases.

v13.0.0

Added

• support multiple calls to .parse() with default settings (#2299)
• add .saveStateBeforeParse() and .restoreStateBeforeParse() for use by subclasses (#2299)
• style routines like styleTitle() to add color to help using .configureHelp() or Help subclass (#2251)
• color related support in .configureOutput() for getOutHasColors(), getErrHasColors(), and stripColor() (#2251)
• Help property for minWidthToWrap (#2251)
• Help methods for displayWidth(), boxWrap(), preformatted() et al (#2251)

Changed

• Breaking: excess command-arguments cause an error by default, see migration tips (#2223)
• Breaking: throw during Option construction for unsupported option flags, like multiple characters after single - (#2270)
• Breaking: throw on multiple calls to .parse() if storeOptionsAsProperties: true (#2299)
• TypeScript: include implicit this in parameters for action handler callback (#2197)

Deleted

• Breaking: Help.wrap() refactored into formatItem() and boxWrap() (#2251)

Migration Tips

Excess command-arguments

It is now an error for the user to specify more command-arguments than are expected. (allowExcessArguments is now false by default.)

Old code:

program.option('-p, --port <number>', 'port number');
program.action((options) => {
  console.log(program.args);
});

Now shows an error:

$ node example.js a b c
error: too many arguments. Expected 0 arguments but got 3.

You can declare the expected arguments. The help will then be more accurate too. Note that declaring new arguments will change what is passed to the action handler.

program.option('-p, --port <number>', 'port number');
program.argument('[args...]', 'remote command and arguments'); // expecting zero or more arguments
program.action((args, options) => {
</tr></table> 

... (truncated)

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
