Hi all,

bzr 0.1 seems to require that special options come before command names.

$ bzr merge --profile
bzr: ERROR: option '--profile' is not allowed for command 'merge'
pwd: /home/abentley/bzr.ab
$ bzr --profile merge
abentley at troll:~/bzr.ab$ bzr --profile merge

$ bzr --profile -r 0..-1 merge
bzr: ERROR: unknown command '-r'
$ bzr --profile merge -r 0..-1

IIRC, older versions allowed "bzr merge --profile".  Was this a
deliberate change?

Personally, I always thought CVS's distinction between global and
per-command options was confusing.
