Comment (by daira):

 The following are filesystem command options but should probably be global
 options:
 {{{
   -u, --node-url=     Specify the URL of the Tahoe gateway node, such as
                       'http://127.0.0.1:3456'. This overrides the URL
 found in
                       the --node-directory .
       --dir-cap=      Specify which dirnode URI should be used as the
 'tahoe'
                       alias.
 }}}

 Also, in e.g. {{{tahoe ls --help}}}, {{{--version}}} is listed as a
 command option but does not work in that position:
 {{{
 [...]/bin/tahoe:  --version not allowed on subcommands
 }}}
