Description

This feature was initially integrated in --dry-run #11 PR. However, it makes more sense to incorporate it within the --verbose flag.

So, this would add three more features to the --verbose flag:

  • Print all sparse-checkout rules via git sparse-checkout list to aid debugging
  • Print the translations_TEMP directory tree after all the files has been pulled git checkout
  • Print the directory tree of all local directories as configured by (repo_dir_from:local_dir_to)

Research direction

Start by tracing the --verbose and --dry-run handling in the CLI, using PR #11 and the named git sparse-checkout list, git checkout, and tree commands as references. Done means verbose mode prints sparse-checkout rules, the translations_TEMP tree, and trees for all configured local directories without requiring --dry-run.
