consider using another argv parser

See original GitHub issue

cacjs/cac is a drop-in replacement for commander made by @egoist.

What I dislike about commander:

tons of unresolved issues and PRs
its creator is no longer involved

What I like about cac:

it uses semantic-release
it uses Typescript
fixes #39 (see here)

What gives me pause about cac:

it has 46% test coverage (not very good)
it’s not as “mature”
it doesn’t have as many users (yet?)

I’ve been using another commander-like parser recently called “sade”. I haven’t had time to compare it with “cac”, but it’s almost half the size.

We’ll just have to see if it supports them being applied by other modules. If not, we can make a PR over there.

Of course it’s not merged yet. 😃

Good news! CAC already supports “git-like subcommands”. It says so in the README! 🎉
