#              ^^^^^^ entity.name.function.option.cmd-help keyword.other.argument.cmd-help
#nice: refactor idea: handle this with a single regex like (|arg)+
#      and scope match 1 (|) like default and 2 (arg) like arguments
                      enable or disable ANSI color codes      (sbt 1.3 and above)

  --timings           display task timings report on shutdown
  --sbt-create        start sbt even if current directory contains no sbt project
  --sbt-dir   <path>  path to global settings/plugins directory (default: ~/.sbt)
#             ^^^^^^ - entity.name.function.option.cmd-help keyword.other.argument.cmd-help
#nice: handle option arguments with \s+ padding
  --sbt-boot  <path>  path to shared boot directory (default: ~/.sbt/boot in 0.11 series)
  --ivy       <path>  path to local Ivy repository (default: ~/.ivy2)
  --mem    <integer>  set memory options (default: 1024)
  --no-share          use all local caches; no sharing
  --no-global         uses global caches, but does not use global ~/.sbt directory.
  --jvm-debug <port>  Turn on JVM debugging, open at the given port.
  --batch             disable interactive mode

  # sbt version (default: from project/build.properties if present, else latest release)
  --sbt-version  <version>   use the specified version of sbt
  --sbt-jar      <path>      use the specified jar as the sbt launcher

  # java version (default: java from PATH, currently openjdk version "1.8.0_292")
  --java-home <path>         alternate JAVA_HOME

  # jvm options and output control
  JAVA_OPTS           environment variable, if unset uses "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"
# ^^^^^^^^^ keyword.other.variable.cmd-help
  .jvmopts            if this file exists in the current directory, its contents
# ^^^^^^^^ variable.parameter.pathname.cmd-help
                      are appended to JAVA_OPTS
  SBT_OPTS            environment variable, if unset uses ""
  .sbtopts            if this file exists in the current directory, its contents
                      are prepended to the runner args
  /etc/sbt/sbtopts    if this file exists, it is prepended to the runner args
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ variable.parameter.pathname.cmd-help
  -Dkey=val           pass -Dkey=val directly to the java runtime
  -J-X                pass option -X directly to the java runtime
                      (-J is stripped)
  -S-X                add -X to sbt's scalacOptions (-S is stripped)

In the case of duplicated or conflicting options, the order above
shows precedence: JAVA_OPTS lowest, command line options highest.
