Describe the bug

Follow the pipx install documentation for MacOS causes a "unrecognized arguments" error on ensurepath command.

How to reproduce

➜ ~ sudo pipx ensurepath --global
Password:
usage: pipx [-h] [--quiet] [--verbose] [--global] [--version]
{install,uninject,inject,upgrade,upgrade-all,uninstall,uninstall-all,reinstall,reinstall-all,list,interpreter,run,runpip,ensurepath,environment,completions} ...
pipx: error: unrecognized arguments: --global
➜ ~

Expected behavior

Install pipx globally without errors

Hi @marcosalberto, could you please provide the version of pipx you are on?

Edit: I just saw your PR. Does setting --global right after
pipx instead of after ensurepath fix it for you?

Hi @Gitznik,

I'm using the 1.5.0 version and change the parameter position fixes the issue.

➜  ~ pipx --version
1.5.0

Sorry by didn't add a comment making reference to the PR.

Ah, I just installed pipx for the first time and caught this.

This works.

sudo pipx --global ensurepath

This doesn't work

sudo pipx ensurepath --global
