+### Please describe the problem.
+
+`git annex config --set <option> <value>` interprets a value with a leading dash as if it were an option. Adding `--` doesn't help.
+
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+`git annex config --set annex.youtube-dl-options -x`
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
