Reproduction

This is the flags-dir "mascots":

$ tree mascots
mascots
└── name

1 directory, 1 file
$ cat mascots/name
Astro
Codey

Using the --flags-dir mascots does not work:

./bin/dev.js hello --flags-dir mascots
./bin/run.js hello --flags-dir mascots
sf plugins link && sf hello --flags-dir mascots

All those commands print the default value of the --name flag ("Salesforce")

Output:

Hello Salesforce!
Hello Salesforce!
Hello Salesforce!

While specyfing multiple --name flags works fine:

./bin/run.js hello --name Astro --name Codey

Output:

Hello Astro, Codey!

Testing

npm test

Output:

hello
✔ should greet Salesforce by default
✔ should greet a single mascot
✔ should greet two mascots given two flags
1) should greet two mascots given a flags dir


3 passing (35ms)
1 failing

1) hello
    should greet two mascots given a flags dir:

    AssertionError: expected 'Hello Salesforce!' to deeply equal 'Hello Astro, Codey!'
