Rename tea --which

[davdroman]

My expectation of running tea --which is that it behaves as the UNIX which command, which outputs the path of whichever command is passed in. However this is not currently the case:

$ which node
/usr/local/bin/node

$ tea --which node
nodejs.org

Instead, I'd expect something like:

$ tea --which node
/Users/davdroman/.tea/nodejs.org/v20.6.1/bin/node

$ tea --which node@14
/Users/davdroman/.tea/nodejs.org/v14.21.3/bin/node

Now granted, tea is supposed to hide bin paths as much as possible and handle the resolving for you, so maybe this --which flag isn't even something useful to have. However, it's still confusing and sets the wrong expectation for the user.

Maybe just renaming the flag is the way to go? Here are a few ideas:

$ tea --full node
nodejs.org

$ tea --fullname node
nodejs.org

$ tea --origin node
nodejs.org

$ tea --pantry node
nodejs.org

Fair point. This is used by the shellcode to determine if we provide a program or not. Thus it returns the fully qualified name.

--has perhaps?

Love --has 👌

K will add to alpha.2 thanks for the input! Was a good point.

Sorry didn't get it into alpha.2. I spent some time thinking and was trying to come up with something more suitable. It's a very specific flag as it stands.

alpha.4 renamed this --provider
