I am getting an error when using skip init with --swift-version. The option is listed in the docs, I assume this may be a bug? (Using skip 1.7.0)
skip init --native-app --appid=apptest.sandbox apptest-sandbox AppTestSandbox --ios-min-version 26.0 --swift-version 6.2
skip init --native-app --appid=apptest.sandbox apptest-sandbox AppTestSandbox --swift-version 6.2
Error: Unknown option '--swift-version'
