New submission from Zooko <zooko at zooko.com>:

As per this e-mail message:

http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/darcs-devel/2007-July/005927.html

If darcs is in the process of doing something (in this case fetching  
metadata from a remote repository), it doesn't do a good enough job  
of informing the user about its progress.  (It should do this when  
the user has passed "-v -v -v" to indicate that she wants verbose  
output.)

Progress indicators might seem like a mere "decoration", but they are  
actually very important to the user experience, so this is not an  
unimportant feature request.

Regards,

Zooko
