This makes fetching multiple remotes be just as verbose as fetching a single remote. This is needed when fetching multiple repositories using the myrepos tool in minimal output mode, where myrepos only prints the repository names when git fetch prints some output. For example in the output below the cgit and git-remote-* lines would be hidden if git fetch were silent by default when fetching multiple remotes, since the default for myrepos is to fetch all remotes for git repositories. pabs@chianamo ~ $ mr -m fetch mr fetch: /home/pabs/cgit Fetching origin mr fetch: /home/pabs/git Fetching origin From https://github.com/git/git - [tag update] junio-gpg-pub -> junio-gpg-pub Fetching hg From https://github.com/SRabbelier/git - [tag update] junio-gpg-pub -> junio-gpg-pub mr fetch: /home/pabs/git-remote-bzr Fetching origin mr fetch: /home/pabs/git-remote-hg Fetching origin Signed-off-by: Paul Wise --- builtin/fetch.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/builtin/fetch.c b/builtin/fetch.c index 9a3869f..fc33667 100644 --- a/builtin/fetch.c +++ b/builtin/fetch.c @@ -1067,7 +1067,7 @@ static int fetch_multiple(struct string_list *list) for (i = 0; i < list->nr; i++) { const char *name = list->items[i].string; argv_array_push(&argv, name); - if (verbosity >= 0) + if (verbosity >= 1) printf(_("Fetching %s\n"), name); if (run_command_v_opt(argv.argv, RUN_GIT_CMD)) { error(_("Could not fetch %s"), name); -- 2.6.1 ```
