Hello!

Is there a way to force a progress output on stderr for git clone preferably using options or environment variables?

The clone command in the git 1.6.0.2 does not print a progress information to stderr if stdout and stderr are redirected (even if no "-q" option is specified).

Such information would have been useful for displaying progress information when cloning from IDE. IDE run git with streams redirected, and this progress information could have been displayed to user to indicate current status of operation.

Best Regards, Constantine
