Is custom version of yargs still required?

[gitgrimbo]

This project uses a fork of yargs with a config-booleans branch.

caniuse-cmd/package.json

Line 32 in fa1b418

"yargs": "git+https://github.com/sgentle/yargs.git#config-booleans"

It looks like the new yargs-parser has changes related to default booleans, and this fork may no longer be required.
