--kubeconfig should work.  If it does not work, that is a bug

--config  is required for backward compatibility. @maszulik I think you can deprecate and hide it now, but leave it in place


Additional info:


➜  ~ mv ~/.kube/config /tmp/tmp.config

➜  ~ oc --kubeconfig /tmp/tmp.config config view

### --config works
