Costin Caraivan commented on MNG-2570:
--------------------------------------

I'm not sure it's the same thing as mentioned by the original reporter, but 
from what I saw while working with Maven and from what I see the developers 
needing, the default mode is ok (verbose).

The debug modes should be:
-X, --debug -> default debug output, without classloading information (no 
dependencies, and especially no managed dependencies)
-Xd, --extra-debug -> extra debug information, the current -X

The current debug mode usually has something like 1% useful information while 
debugging plugin problems, configuration problems. We have hundreds of 
thousands of lines of lines showing managed/transitive dependencies for big 
builds, when all we want to see is: what was the real parameter used by Maven 
when launching the jarsigner (for example)...

> We need a slightly less verbose output so that things like compiler warnings 
> and other output is actually visable to the developer. Currently it gets 
> buried in all the noise.
