### BREAKING CHANGES
* drops Node 4 support
* the argv object is now populated differently (correctly) when hyphens and dot notation are used in conjunction.
* do not set boolean flags if not defined in `argv` ([#119](https://github.com/yargs/yargs-parser/issues/119)) ([f6e6599](https://github.com/yargs/yargs-parser/commit/f6e6599))
### BREAKING CHANGES
*`boolean` flags defined without a `default` value will now behave like other option type and won't be set in the parsed results when the user doesn't set the corresponding CLI arg.
Previous behavior:
```js
var parse = require('yargs-parser');
parse('--flag', {boolean: ['flag']});
// => { _: [], flag: true }
parse('--no-flag', {boolean: ['flag']});
// => { _: [], flag: false }
parse('', {boolean: ['flag']});
// => { _: [], flag: false }
```
New behavior:
```js
var parse = require('yargs-parser');
parse('--flag', {boolean: ['flag']});
// => { _: [], flag: true }
parse('--no-flag', {boolean: ['flag']});
// => { _: [], flag: false }
parse('', {boolean: ['flag']});
// => { _: [] } => flag not set similarly to other option type

### Features

* **count:** do not increment a default value ([#39](https://github.com/yargs/yargs-parser/issues/39)) ([b04a189](https://github.com/yargs/yargs-parser/commit/b04a189))
