Issue with multiline template strings

[overengineered]

I found this example in documentation:

await $`npm run build
	--example-flag-one
	--example-flag-two`

I tried running:

await $({ verbose: true })`mkdir -p 
${"dir1"}`.pipeStdout?.(process.stdout);

Note the space after the -p. Execa verbose showed this as command:

[22:20:12.537] mkdir -p "
dir1"

On MacOS this actually created a folder with newline as the first name character. I tried

await $({ verbose: true })`mkdir -p \
${"dir1"}`.pipeStdout?.(process.stdout);

This created the expected folder simply named "dir1". I'm using version 8.0.1

Hi @overengineered,

This feature has been implemented but has not been released yet. We're working on it, but it might take a few more weeks. Thanks for your interest in the feature!

In the meantime, you can use the following workaround:

await $`npm run build ${[
	'--example-flag-one',
	'--example-flag-two',
]}`

This feature has been just released in Execa 9.0.0. Please see (and share!) the release post and the changelog.
