Override ui mode with environment variable?

[jon-ressio]

Summary

I have some developers on my team that really dislike the TUI mode. It would be nice if they could add an entry to their .env file TURBO_UI_MODE=stream so they don't have to pass --ui=stream to all commands they run. Or a turbo.json.local that could override that setting.

Right now a couple of them are just modifying turbo.json but that's in source control and at some point they're going to accidentally check it in, it's friction to remember not to check that in so just looking for better suggestions / options?

This is available as TURBO_UI in our System Environment Variables (last item on the list). While they won't be able to put this variable in a .env file since Turborepo doesn't read .env files, they can set it on their machine (e.g. export TURBO_UI=false).
