They do collect at least the first argument, how else do they end up with "bulid"? Accidents happen and someone could paste or tab-complete a confidential thing

  So if you push your api key to github by accident is github responsible?

    Invalid comparison, in my humble opinion. Pushing a secret API key to github, even accidentally, does not happen covertly or as an unexpected side effect of some other tool written by github, and you'll soon realize what happens because you'll see your key sitting there. You also have a general idea of what you are playing with when you start using github, whether it's private repos or public repos. Having a local CLI tool submit your secret API key as part of telemetry collecting command line arguments is totally unexpected and invisible for the user, and you won't even see it has happened.

  I Guess they whitelist it. If someone types a valid command send the command. If someone types an invalid command then it prob sends something that isn’t descriptive. (Assumptions I’m making)
