--- Comment #5 from David Nadlinger <code at klickverbot.at> ---
Setting the verbosity level to something higher prints out the SVN output
directly, so you get some feedback. But this is an extra change you have to
make, and once you are not a newcomer anymore, you probably know what is
happening anyway.

Seriously, I was not suggesting to dump all the SVN info on the console all the
time. Just add a little one-line message or whatever else which makes clear to
the user that a potentially time-consuming network operation is running in the
background. I suppose I'm not the only one who would find that this avoids
confusion on the user side, as package managers tend to do this by default on
fetching packages, etc. :)
