Re: [PATCH RFC] Add a config verbose option fetch and push

Since Peter Kjellerstedt wanted --ff-only, and you want --verbose. I
wonder whether a better solution wouldn't be to farm this
functionality out to the config parser.

I.e. you'd do something like:

    static struct option builtin_fetch_options[] = {
        OPT__PROGRAM_NAME("fetch"), /* this is new */
	    OPT__VERBOSITY(&verbosity),
    	OPT_BOOLEAN(0, "all", &all,
	    	    "fetch from all remotes"),
        ...

And then in your .gitconfig:

    [fetch "option"]
        verbose = 1

Is there any reason not to add such a general facility?
