Description Ross Burton 2016-02-23 20:56:30 UTC 
BB_VERBOSE_LOGS is awesome magic for debugging shell scripts in recipes but it isn't very discoverable.  It would be great if there were a command line option so it was discoverable through --help.

Isn't this what the -v option does?
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2016-02-24 16:17:18 UTC 
Yes, fine. :)  Obviously failed to test that though I thought I did.

-v is massively verbose but that's another issue.
