* **I'm getting errors when I use flags with git-flow!**
`git-flow` uses the [shFlags](http://code.google.com/p/shflags/) library to
provide platform independent flag parsing (using wichever low-level flag
parsing libraries like `getopt` or `getopts` are available). However,
`shFlags` does not work too well on a few platforms that haven't been tested
originally. This results in errors like this:
flags:WARN getopt: option invalide -- 'f' -- 'init' flags:FATAL unable to parse provided options with getopt
The platforms that suffer these errors include:
- Gentoo
- Ubuntu
- Redhat Enterprise Linux
There are open issues related to this:
[#28](http://github.com/nvie/gitflow/issues/28) and
[#39](http://github.com/nvie/gitflow/issues/39). Unfortunately, there is no
simple fix for it and all hope is placed on the Python rewrite of `git-flow`,
see issue [#33](http://github.com/nvie/gitflow/issues/33).
