hey folks, do we have a preferred way to activate debug/verbose in a tool when the

-ldebug

arg is passed? I can simply request

GlobalOptions

and then

if global_options.level > <http://LogLevel.INFO|LogLevel.INFO>:

, but is there a more approved way?

Maybe have a tool-specific option to set the tool’s log level? Or if applicable, a pass-through arguments option so the user can do it themselves?

I guess that's fair. I figured that if someone has

-ldebug

then they probably also wanted the debug logs, but I guess that's not necessarily true. Especially the inverse, that if they wanted the tool debug logs they don't necessarily want Pants's debug logs.

This is also an existing pattern. See for example https://www.pantsbuild.org/stable/reference/subsystems/pex#verbosity
