Maven is too verbose in its output, obscuring actual messages
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3648
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3648
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.0.8
Reporter: Ittay Dror
Things I would like to move to 'debug' or 'trace' levels:
1. Reactor build order list: the order is always the same, so why print? if
it's an issue of telling the user, in case he forgot to trigger a profile, then
i think that in most cases it misses the target, simply because it appears so
much that people just don't pay attention to the list
2. Reactor summary: showing successful modules means it's harder to find the
failed ones. Just show me what failed.
3. Plugins usually print they are running in 'info' level. This is actually a
tracing message as they will always run.
I know I can suppress these with '-q', but then it suppresses all 'info'
messages, so that relevant information about actions taken (actions that change
in each build) is not printed.
