Removed “stage” command-line option. It was not being used for anything

Proposed behavior

Bring it back

Justification

Hey guys, thank you so much for your hard work. Since you removed the stage option, how do we deploy to staging and production?

I don’t think the plugin needs to support --stage, since if it’s required by the app it’s easy to define it in serverless config. I’m using:

custom:
  stage: ${opt:stage, self:provider.stage}
  client:
    bucketName: my-bucket-${self:custom.stage}

Might be worth mentioning this example in README tho.

Hi @fernando-mc, thanks for your reply. There is still the option of using

provider:
  stage: ${opt:stage, 'dev'}

I understand it might be redundant but I feel --stage was more consistent with the serverless CLI.
