> Are you referring to the "Running commands" detail output which include
the command that is being run?
This is indeed what I am referring to. I do not think it is particularly
useful to do it pre-emptively for every element that is being built in the
interactive output and probably not in the main CI output either when element
logs exist. Currently what gets printed is:
```
[--:--:--] START core/gnome-characters.bst: Running commands
meson setup [...]
[20 or so lines of output]
Message contains 47 additional lines
```
This output is truncated and passes by really fast, so I do not really see
the use of it if you need to troubleshoot something.
> What's the information that "is logged per element already"?
If you run `bst artifact log core/gnome-characters.bst` you get the full
untruncated output of which commands were run for that element's build, which
can be useful for troubleshooting
On build failure you also get a print of the last few commands where the
build failed, which can be useful, but this issue is about doing it for every
build pre-emptively when no failure has occurred.
> I'm not sure I fully understand what you're referring to.
I rushed writing this issue, apologies for that. I will change the title to
something more descriptive.
