OPTION SYNTAX
-------------
All options accepting an argument can be used with '=' or ':' as a
separator. For the cases where it's not ambiguous (in particular
excluding boolean options), a space can also be used. The following
are all equivalent:
::
notmuch --config=alt-config config get user.name
notmuch --config:alt-config config get user.name
notmuch --config alt-config config get user.name
