-h-1 Option of sqlcmd.exe

The -h option of sqlcmd configures the number of rows in the column headers. Setting the -h option to -1 removes the headers entirely. Previously, when column headers were removed by using -h-1, the output column was set to the size of the data length. The current behavior sets the output column size to the data length or the column name size, whichever is greater. (This is the same column length as produced with headers.)
