[lttng-dev] lttng create --help spawns a daemon

Hello again,

I just noticed that when asked to display the help message, lttng
create spawns a daemon:

$ ps -A | grep ltt
$ lttng create --help
Spawning a session daemon
usage: lttng create [options] [NAME]

  -h, --help           Show this help
  -o, --output PATH    Specify output path for traces
$ ps -A | grep ltt
24728 pts/2    00:00:00 lttng-sessiond

I'm not sure this is intended. I surely wasn't expecting this behaviour!

With best regards
-- Sébastien
