  1. Use brackets for the default value of option arguments 

    The goal is to standardize the format of the help text printed
by pypa commands. It is not easy to choose between brackets `[]`
and parentheses `()`. I went for the docopt style, which is the
closest to a standard I could find:
	http://docopt.org/

	[...] and whether that argument has a default value ([default: 10]).

This change has already been applied to setuptools:
