[jira] [Created] (SLING-8519) Improve CLI parsing and general look and feel

Radu Cotescu created SLING-8519:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Improve CLI parsing and general look and feel
                 Key: SLING-8519
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8519
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Tooling
            Reporter: Radu Cotescu
             Fix For: Committer CLI 1.0.0


The current implementation of the Committer CLI provides its own parsing of the command line arguments. However, the current design is not flexible enough when it comes to adding other commands, nor regarding the way the parameters are handled.

picocli [0], a project using the Apache 2.0 license, seems mature enough and can help with building the CLI, allowing the project to focus more on the actual commands to be executed rather than on the CLI itself.
