I had a hard time understanding what you are trying to achieve. The
word "emit" may be techinically correct from the point of view of
this program, but wouldn't there be a better word to describe what
is being achieved by this program "emit"ting the additional output
lines?
Perhaps "ask the helper to enable progress and verbosity capabilities"
or somesuch?
They "should also be emitted" may also want to be justified in a
better way, by describing what _bad_ things the current code that
lacks this patch is doing as a bug.
Perhaps like "The current transport-helper.c code does not tell a
remote helper that uses the import and export interface to enable
progress and verbosity capabilities, even if the helper supports
them."
Is there a downside of doing this? I do not think of any offhand.
Thanks.
