- Parameter decorators and ``@group`` handles ``cls=None`` the same as
not passing ``cls``. ``@option`` handles ``help=None`` the same as
not passing ``help``. :issue:`#1959`
+- A flag option with ``required=True`` requires that the flag is
+ passed instead of choosing the implicit default value. :issue:`1978`
- Indentation in help text passed to ``Option`` and ``Command`` is
cleaned the same as using the ``@option`` and ``@command``
decorators does. A command's ``epilog`` and ``short_help`` are also
processed. :issue:`1985`
