Invoke pew with a double dash separator ("--"), to make it clear that
the virtualenv name is a positional argument. Since the virtualenv
name includes all or at least the beginning of the directory name,
trying to create a virtualenv in a directory with a leading dash in
its name will cause pew to erroneously parse the virtualenv name as an
optional argument. Adding the separator causes the virtualenv name to
be parsed correctly.
Fixes pypa#439

Following feedback from PR #2399, I decided to close that PR and go in a new direction. Instead of sanitizing the virtualenv name, I fixed how
pewis called. However, I chose to keep the command-line invocation and not usepew'smkvirtualenv()function. This was done to keep the codepaths similar, sincevirtualenvneeds to continue to be called from the command line. (virtualenvdoes not support supplying a different version of Python increate_environment(); it opens a subprocess to achieve that.)The test is also a much better representation of the problem, albeit more complex.
Fixes #439
