Running `dotnet new --list` should not list the command options for `dotnet new` #2407

Closed danroth27 closed 4 years ago

danroth27 commented 4 years ago

When you run dotnet new --list it displays the command options for dotnet new before listing out the templates, which seems unnecessary.

Expected result:

> dotnet new --list

@danroth27 thank you for the issue. Probably you're running dotnet new of version 3.1. In the .Net 5 preview we do not show general help anymore and also I added some additional improvements recently (please take a look at PR #2391). The new template list looks pretty clean and nice.

I tried this out with .NET 5, and the new output looks great. Thanks!
