Tried turning on more debugging in my new remote-helper and was surprised by this:

$ git fetch -q swarm://address blah I= "option verbosity 0" $ git fetch swarm://address blah I= "option verbosity 1" $ git fetch -v swarm://address blah I= "option verbosity 1" $ git fetch -vv swarm://address blah I= "option verbosity 3" $ git fetch -vvv swarm://address blah I= "option verbosity 4" # etc

$ git --version git version 1.7.2.1

IOW the '-v' case is undetectable. Presumably an off-by-one check somewhere, and not part of ABI cause some existing helper depends on this behavior? ;)
