My suggestion was to add the 'version' subcommand like Git has, not a "-version"
option:

$ git version
git version 2.14.1

Hi Ingo,

Sorry about that. Actually I find it's a bug in my patch. The 'perf -vxyz' is mapped to 'perf --version' mistakenly. So 'perf -version' will be mapped to 'perf --version' and 'perf -vabc' will be mapped too.

I will fix this bug.

Currently, 'perf -v', 'perf version' and 'perf --version' have the same behavior.

So I will let:
'perf -v --build-options',
'perf version --build-options',
'perf --version --build-options',
'perf -vv'
have same output.

For example,

$ ./perf version --build-options
perf version 4.13.rc5.gcb1183
