Lack of documentation on --non-interactive

[anantakrishna]

Cannot find any thorough documentation on --non-interactive. Only from the command line itself:

error out of the command instead of waiting for prompts

Are there any assumptions that trigger this option ON automatically?

Do I understand correctly from command.ts#L211 that process.stdin.isTTY is false for Ci environment like GitHub Actions?

That check in particular is very old - I can't say for sure that isTTY would be false on CI environments, I've ever done an experiment to check 🙂

From what I can tell, outside of setting the flag manually, that's the only spot where it's set automatically. That is run before every command, so it would apply to every one.

Maybe an action that can be taken here is to improve that documentation?

[anantakrishna]

Seems so, adding some docs would be beneficial.

Currently I'm not using --non-interactive in my CI script, and it still works well. But I guess I should add this flag anyhow.
