mix local.hex --if-missing: Unknown option

[xtian]

Not sure if I am doing something wrong here, but I'm having trouble getting the new --if-missing option to work with mix local.hex.

Environment

• Elixir & Erlang versions (elixir --version):

~$ mix --version
Erlang/OTP 20 [erts-9.0] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [ds:8:8:10] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] [dtrace]

Mix 1.5.1

• Operating system: macOS 10.12.6

Current behavior

~$ mix local.hex --if-missing
** (Mix) Could not invoke task "local.hex": 1 error found!
--if-missing : Unknown option

Expected behavior

--if-missing flag should be recognized and trigger the behavior described in #5674

Can you by chance be running a Mix from a precious Elixir installation? What happens if you do "iex -S mix" and then call Application.started_applications? -- *José Valim* www.plataformatec.com.br Skype: jv.ptec Founder and Director of R&D

No worries, I was able to verify it. :)
