///
/// Setting `multiple_values` for an argument that takes a value, but with no other details can

/// positional arguments are *also* expected as `clap` will continue parsing *values* until one

///
/// - It reaches the [maximum number of values]
/// - It reaches a [specific number of values]
/// - It finds another flag or option (i.e. something that starts with a `-`)
/// - It reaches a [value terminator][Arg::value_terminator] is reached
///
/// Alternatively, [require a delimiter between values][Arg::require_delimiter].
///
/// **WARNING:**
///
/// When using args with `multiple_values` and [`subcommands`], one needs to consider the
/// possibility of an argument value being the same as a valid subcommand. By default `clap` will
/// parse the argument in question as a value *only if* a value is possible at that moment.
/// Otherwise it will be parsed as a subcommand. In effect, this means using `multiple_values` with no
/// additional parameters and a value that coincides with a subcommand name, the subcommand
/// cannot be called unless another argument is passed between them.
///
/// As an example, consider a CLI with an option `--ui-paths=<paths>...` and subcommand `signer`
///
/// The following would be parsed as values to `--ui-paths`.
///
/// ```text
/// $ program --ui-paths path1 path2 signer
/// ```
///
/// This is because `--ui-paths` accepts multiple values. `clap` will continue parsing values
/// until another argument is reached and it knows `--ui-paths` is done parsing.
///
/// By adding additional parameters to `--ui-paths` we can solve this issue. Consider adding
/// [`Arg::number_of_values(1)`] or using *only* [`ArgAction::Append`]. The following are all
/// valid, and `signer` is parsed as a subcommand in the first case, but a value in the second
/// case.
///
/// ```text
/// $ program --ui-paths path1 signer
/// $ program --ui-paths path1 --ui-paths signer signer
/// ```
///
/// # Examples
///
/// An example with options
///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{Command, Arg};
/// let m = Command::new("prog")
/// .arg(Arg::new("file")
/// .takes_value(true)
/// .multiple_values(true)
/// .short('F'))
/// .get_matches_from(vec![
/// "prog", "-F", "file1", "file2", "file3"
/// ]);
///
/// assert!(m.contains_id("file"));
/// let files: Vec<_> = m.values_of("file").unwrap().collect();
/// assert_eq!(files, ["file1", "file2", "file3"]);
/// ```
///
/// Although `multiple_values` has been specified, we cannot use the argument more than once.
///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{Command, Arg, ErrorKind};
/// let res = Command::new("prog")
/// .arg(Arg::new("file")
/// .takes_value(true)
/// .multiple_values(true)

/// ]);
///
/// assert!(res.is_err());
/// assert_eq!(res.unwrap_err().kind(), ErrorKind::UnexpectedMultipleUsage)
/// ```
///
/// A common mistake is to define an option which allows multiple values, and a positional
/// argument.
///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{Command, Arg};
/// let m = Command::new("prog")
/// .arg(Arg::new("file")
/// .takes_value(true)
/// .multiple_values(true)
/// .short('F'))

/// assert_eq!(files, ["file1", "file2", "file3", "word"]); // wait...what?!
/// assert!(!m.contains_id("word")); // but we clearly used word!
/// ```
///
/// The problem is `clap` doesn't know when to stop parsing values for "files". This is further
/// compounded by if we'd said `word -F file1 file2` it would have worked fine, so it would
/// appear to only fail sometimes...not good!
///
/// A solution for the example above is to limit how many values with a [maximum], or [specific]

///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{Command, Arg, ArgAction};

/// assert!(m.is_present("debug")); // even though flag conflicts with debug, it's as if flag

/// assert!(!m.is_present("flag"));
/// ```
/// Care must be taken when using this setting, and having an arg override with itself. This
/// is common practice when supporting things like shell aliases, config files, etc.
/// However, when combined with multiple values, it can get dicy.
/// Here is how clap handles such situations:
///
/// When a flag overrides itself, it's as if the flag was only ever used once (essentially
/// preventing a "Unexpected multiple usage" error):
///
/// ```rust
/// # use clap::{Command, arg};
/// let m = Command::new("posix")
/// .arg(arg!(--flag "some flag").overrides_with("flag"))
/// .get_matches_from(vec!["posix", "--flag", "--flag"]);
/// assert!(m.is_present("flag"));
/// ```
///
/// Making an arg [`Arg::multiple_occurrences`] and override itself
/// is essentially meaningless. Therefore clap ignores an override of self
/// if it's a flag and it already accepts multiple occurrences.
///
/// ```
/// # use clap::{Command, arg};
/// let m = Command::new("posix")
/// .arg(arg!(--flag ... "some flag").overrides_with("flag"))
/// .get_matches_from(vec!["", "--flag", "--flag", "--flag", "--flag"]);
/// assert!(m.is_present("flag"));
/// ```
///
/// Now notice with options (which *do not* set
/// [`Arg::multiple_occurrences`]), it's as if only the last
/// occurrence happened.
///
/// ```
/// # use clap::{Command, arg};
/// let m = Command::new("posix")
/// .arg(arg!(--opt <val> "some option").overrides_with("opt"))
/// .get_matches_from(vec!["", "--opt=some", "--opt=other"]);
/// assert!(m.is_present("opt"));
/// assert_eq!(m.value_of("opt"), Some("other"));
/// ```
///
/// This will also work when [`Arg::multiple_values`] is enabled:
///
/// ```
/// # use clap::{Command, Arg};
/// let m = Command::new("posix")
/// .arg(
/// Arg::new("opt")
/// .long("opt")
/// .takes_value(true)
/// .multiple_values(true)

/// assert!(m.is_present("opt"));
/// assert_eq!(m.values_of("opt").unwrap().collect::<Vec<_>>(), &["3", "4", "5"]);
/// ```
///
/// Just like flags, options with [`Arg::multiple_occurrences`] set
/// will ignore the "override self" setting.
///
/// ```
