If you don't mind I would prefer a command line option to _enable_ progress messages, something like -v or --verbose so to keep back compatibility with current versions of tools that do not expect stderr messages.
I'll first move the message back to stdout. Does qgit rely on the StGIT output to have a certain format/information? Does the progress message affect it in any way? I consider many of the other messages to be progress messages (like "pushing... done") and I haven't differentiated between them until Karl's patch. For commands like diff or status, you expect the command to check the working copy anyway and it doesn't output this specific message. The best would probably be to add a "verbose" config option to enable this message (and maybe a command line option later but this means modifying all the commands to accept this option). I'll try to push this change tomorrow (together with moving from stgitrc to gitconfig). -- Catalin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
