This was brought up in another email but I figured it deserved a separate thread.
Right now "buildr --trace" turns the verbose fire-hose to full blast. This means we run "javac -verbose", "ant --trace", "apt -verbose", ... which is often overwhelming and of little use when you're simply debugging Rake-related dependency issues. One solution would be to selectively turn on the trace switch based on the task so I was thinking of adding a BUILDR_TRACE environment variable that would contain a list of comma-separated keywords to control tracing behavior, e.g., export BUILDR_TRACE="javac,ant,apt". Any better ideas? alex
