Some submodules will be annoyingly big In 1.5.2 that -v shouldn't be necessary. The read-tree should start a timer, and if it has not reached 50% of its processing within 2 seconds it starts showing progress. Unless !istty(2), in which case it just sits there, chugging away at your drive. I'm actually really unhappy with our !istty(2) means disable progress thing. git-gui knows how to read and show the progress meters, but nobody prints them anymore as 2 is a pipe. I have the same problem with a Java build tool that sometimes starts up an expensive Git operation (like a clone over SSH of a 60+ MiB project). I've been considering adding a GIT_ISTTY environment variable to forcefully override the istty result, just to get the progress meters turned back on... -- Shawn. - 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
