title: Activate retry in firebase cloud function programmatically
body: <p>i'm deploying firebase cloud functions to listen on changes in our firestore via continuous deployment.</p>
  
  <p>I can only find a way to activate retries <a href="https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/retries#enabling_and_disabling_retries" rel="nofollow noreferrer">manually</a>. Which goes contrary to our cd approach.</p>
  
  <p>Looking at the normal <a href="https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/beta/functions/deploy#--retry" rel="nofollow noreferrer">gcp cloud functions</a> the retry flag can be given when deploying. But i cannot find a similar option in the firebase-cli or the firebase-functions interface (2.1.0)</p>
  
  <p>Any hints on how to solve this?
