the value "-" is not the same as the value "-1"

Operating system and Environment details

CentOS 6.8

Description of the Issue (and unexpected/desired result)

consul kv put -1
appears to read from stdin as if the value were "-"
Instead consul should realize that the value is -1, not - and put the value in to the kv store

Reproduction steps

consul kv put foo -1

Log Fragments or Link to gist

Include appropriate Client or Server log fragments. If the log is longer
than a few dozen lines, please include the URL to the
gist.

TIP: Use -log-level=TRACE on the client and server to capture the maximum log detail.

@pheitman On my machine, when executing consul kv put with any negative values the command hangs. Does this happen do you too? I am running on Arch Linux.

[pheitman]

Yes, I am pretty sure that consul is treating the negative value as if it
was a minus sign which tells consul to read the value from stdin.

@pheitman aha, I just tried it out again and I think you're correct. Will look into fixing this.
