I use "-v -i" together quite frequently when debugging. I also use "-v" automatically to debug test failures when tests are invoked automatically on machines I do not have access to.

Please don't break it.

No particular opinion about the use of GIT_TRACE here: I haven't looked at it closely (and in particular I didn't look up the purpose of the commit that added it, so I can't really judge).

Thanks, Jonathan
