`flutter pub get` broken without explicitly providing directory argument

Using the master channel, running `flutter pub get` with any arguments except `--directory` or `-C` throws with the error saying the tool `expected to find a project root in <INSERT_ARGUMENT>`. E.g. `flutter pub get -v ` or `flutter pub get --offline`.
