Increases the level of verbosity of diagnostic messages printed
|
||||
on standard error. For each Nix operation, the information
|
||||
printed on standard output is well-defined; any diagnostic
|
||||
information is printed on standard error, never on standard
|
||||
output.

Causes the output written by build actions to standard output

and standard error to be echoed to standard error, regardless of
|

verbosity level. By default, it is only echoed at a verbosity
|
||||
level of at least 4 (<quote>Debug</quote>), and is suppressed at
|
||||
lower levels. Note that it is always written to a log file in
|
||||
<filename><replaceable>prefix</replaceable>/nix/var/log/nix</filename>.

directory is printed as an informational message.
