In-Reply-To: <pull.316.v4.git.1571147764.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com>

The read-tree builtin has a --verbose option that signals to show progress and other data while updating the index. Update this to be on by default when stderr is a terminal window.

This will help tools like 'git sparse-checkout' to automatically benefit from progress indicators when a user runs these commands.
