initconfig => error: can't modify frozen String

[mickael-palma-argus]

Hi,

I have # frozen_string_literal: true at the beginning of my bin file.
When I run bundle exec bin/app initconfig I get this error:

error: can't modify frozen String

I have to use # frozen_string_literal: false to succeed the command.

How I can I make it work with # frozen_string_literal: true.

Thx for your help.

Can you run your app with GLI_DEBUG=true so that it generates a stack trace and we can see where that error is coming from?

GLI_DEBUG=true my_app whatever -foo=bar # for example

If you wonder line 176 has : exit run(ARGV)

It's this line: https://github.com/davetron5000/gli/blob/gli-2/lib/gli/commands/initconfig.rb#L41

That line might not be needed any longer—I think it was added for support of an old Ruby. If you want to try removing it and making a PR we can see if the current build matrix passes it.
