    Commands are the heart of the command-line bzr interface.

    The command object mostly handles the mapping of command-line
    parameters into one or more bzrlib operations, and of the results
    into textual output.

    Commands normally don't have any state.  All their arguments are
    passed in to the run method.  (Subclasses may take a different
    policy if the behaviour of the instance needs to depend on e.g. a
    shell plugin and not just its Python class.)

    The docstring for an actual command should give a single-line
    summary, then a complete description of the command.  A grammar
    description will be inserted.

    :cvar aliases: Other accepted names for this command.

    :cvar takes_args: List of argument forms, marked with whether they are
        optional, repeated, etc.  Examples::

            ['to_location', 'from_branch?', 'file*']

        * 'to_location' is required
        * 'from_branch' is optional
        * 'file' can be specified 0 or more times

    :cvar takes_options: List of options that may be given for this command.
        These can be either strings, referring to globally-defined options, or
        option objects.  Retrieve through options().

    :cvar hidden: If true, this command isn't advertised.  This is typically
        for commands intended for expert users.

    :cvar encoding_type: Command objects will get a 'outf' attribute, which has
        been setup to properly handle encoding of unicode strings.
        encoding_type determines what will happen when characters cannot be
        encoded:

        * strict - abort if we cannot decode
        * replace - put in a bogus character (typically '?')
        * exact - do not encode sys.stdout

        NOTE: by default on Windows, sys.stdout is opened as a text stream,
        therefore LF line-endings are converted to CRLF.  When a command uses
        encoding_type = 'exact', then sys.stdout is forced to be a binary
        stream, and line-endings will not mangled.

    :cvar invoked_as:
        A string indicating the real name under which this command was
        invoked, before expansion of aliases.
        (This may be None if the command was constructed and run in-process.)

    :cvar hooks: An instance of CommandHooks.

    :cvar __doc__: The help shown by 'bzr help command' for this command.
        This is set by assigning explicitly to __doc__ so that -OO can
        be used::

            class Foo(Command):
