As per #5652,
beet --config <path> config -e
edited the default config path, even though that's not the config that would be used by beets.It seems like this was the result of a deliberate short-circuit in
_raw_main()
. The short-circuit prevents malformed configs from causing a crash before opening the editor, but also prevents the setup function from loading the custom config at all.The solution used here is to just expose the CLI options to
edit_config()
, so that it can use the custom config path if its set. I also suspect that the branch inconfig_func()
which is getting short circuited is actually unreachable, but I left it in with a note just in case.Fixes #5652
