Comment (by vbraun):

 I used INFO to log messages about how to proceed, this is one of the
 crucial features that make git usable:
 {{{
 $ git status
 # On branch dev_scripts
 # Your branch is ahead of 'trac/u/vbraun/dev_scripts' by 11 commits.
 #   (use "git push" to publish your local commits)
 #
 # Untracked files:
 #   (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
 #
 #       test
 nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to
 track)
 }}}
 Everything with comment markers is what I call INFO. I spent a lot of time
 observing people trying to use the dev scripts last week and not being
 told about the next logical step is a huge obstacle.

 There are lots of DEBUG messages (=stuff that protocols the execution flow
 like "operation completed successfully") that are mislabeled as INFO. If
 you don't want to see unless you are trying to debug the program then it
 should be DEBUG.

 We can have an intermediate INFO < HELP < NORMAL level if somebody really
 has a use for non-debug informational messages but I think that would be
 overkill.
