Hi..

Currently the progress-bar when running split echo's with a single
line which is great, but when it is done it disappears again and the
outcome is gone.

Suggest to record the last line and then "say" it after all commits
have been processed. It is then more informative to run from the
command line.

Patches can be found here:

Best regards

Seems reasonable enough. Looks like it might need an extra check on how it behaves in quiet mode, but other than that go ahead and try submitting a patch via GitGitGadget.
