hey everyone, just doing a sanity check here… is this supposed to work?
Copy code
./pants --changed-since=origin/develop --changed-dependees=transitive --tag=build filter --target-types='archive'
I’m trying to get only the
archive
target from that list.. but I’m getting this python error:
Copy code
❯ ./pants --changed-since=origin/develop --changed-dependees=transitive --tag=build filter --target-types='archive'

Unknown flag --target-types on filter scope
Did you mean --target-type, --target, --type?
Use `./pants help filter` to get help.
