pytest --version might better avoid loading config #3692
Description
- Include a detailed description of the bug or suggestion
not sure if easily doable but ideally the --version shouldn't depend on parsing config etc, and just spit out a version of pytest since it might be the one to decide either config needs to be patched etc. ATM for me that fails:
