💖 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 💖

these aren't even its own flags, they're inherited, like hand-me-downs from the parent command but make it iconic 👑

• --debug[=false] — spill ALL the debug messages, every last one, no hiding 🐛
• --explain[=false] — if the command is valid, it explains its parsed arguments instead of actually running it. it's giving "read the recipe, don't cook" 🙈
• --force-local[=false] — forces using the local unix socket. local only, no cap 🔌
• -h, --help[=false] — print help, because sometimes we all need a little guidance 🫶
• --project="" — override the source project
• -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress info. silent era, we love her 🤫
• --sub-commands[=false] — use this with help or --help to view sub-commands
• -v, --verbose[=false] — show all the information messages, chatterbox mode activated 🗣️
• --version[=false] — print the version number, so you know exactly which era of incus you're in ⭐
