#934 Issue closed: Be more verbose by default

Labels: enhancement, won't fix / can't fix / obsolete

  • rear version (/usr/sbin/rear -V):
    Relax-and-Recover 1.17.2 / Git
  • OS version (cat /etc/rear/os.conf or lsb_release -a):
    RedHatEnterpriseServer 7

Please consider to make verbose mode as a default behavior.
Maybe some --quiet option could be there for non verbose output.

See https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/929

The non-verbose mode is intentionally
since version 1.11.0
see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/929#issuecomment-233609454

But I don't know the reasoning behind why
it is silent by default.

I guess it is "traditional UNIX style" where
commands are by default non-verbose.
