YAML documents while trying to preserve as much as possible from the original
documents (like comments and anchors).

    optional arguments:
      -h, --help      show this help message and exit
      -i, --in-place  Perform the pretty-print in place, overwriting the existing files.

    When enabling --in-place, all files are processed as input files.
    When --in-place is not enabled and there are more then 2 files
    passed, the last files is considered as the output file. If you
    wish to pretty-print multiple files and output to standard out,
    specify the last file as "-" .
    Please note that specifying multiple input files will concatenate
    them, resulting in a single file that has multiple documents.
