―― 10:28:46 - Doom Emacs ―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Error: unknown option -y

Usage: doom [-!|--force] [-D|--debug] [--doomdir DIR] [--emacsdir DIR]

Additional details

• Which operating system or Linux distribution are you using?
• How did you install Topgrade?

MacOS 12.4 Monterey
Topgrade installed via Homebrew

Paste the output of `topgrade -v`

The step seems completely broken now:

❯ topgrade --only emacs
❯ doom upgrade
> Preparing to upgrade Doom Emacs and its packages...
- A new version of Doom Emacs is available!

it just exits with exit code 0 doing nothing, even though there is clearly an update available

@xeruf try to run that topgrade --only emacs -v. it's should be something like that:

topgrade --only emacs -v
....
Emacs: SKIPPED: Path "/home/nardo/.emacs.d/init.el" doesn't exist

the hack solution it's to create a init.el.

touch ~/.emacs.d/init.el

Now it's should be fail because there is no option -y flag anymore, #968 fixes that.
