Hi,  
I am trying to create a sweep YAML config but the hp are not passed as cli args to my script.

The yaml:

```nohighlight

program: src.stance_detection.bert.simpletransformers.sweep_tests
method: grid
metric:
  goal: minimize
  name: loss
parameters:
  n:
    values: [1, 2]
command:
  - ${env}
  - ${interpreter}
  - "-m"
  - ${program}
  - ${args_no_boolean_flags}

```

The script:

```python
import wandb
from pprint import pprint
import sys

if __name__ == " __main__":
    pprint(sys.argv)
    wandb.init()
    wandb.log({"loss": 0})

```

I was expecting `sys.argv` to contain `--n=[value]`. What am I doing wrong?

It seems to have been a bug in wandb. Updating to `0.12.21 ` fixed it.
