Comment(by drkirkby):

 Replying to [comment:27 leif]:

 > Verbosity levels for {{{sage-spkg}}} wouldn't be bad either, especially
 suppressing the verbose {{{tar}}} output is IMHO worth doing, since a lot
 of spkgs contain hundreds or thousands of files (while the actual build
 log is often only a few lines).

 I think removing the 'v' option from tar output would be sensible. It
 would make the log files smaller & reduce disk I/O. It would also make
 finding things like "warnings" easier, as you could grep the log looking
 for warnings, and not find every file which has the name "warning" in it.

 In the absence of anyone writing a patch to control verbosity, just
 removing the 'v' would be a useful addition I think. The default action
 should not be to produce tons of unnecessary output.
