sbt verbose logging no longer translates to tools debug logging

[ekrich]

sbt --verbose used to enable debug logging in tools. It was super helpful to see the compilation and linking commands in all their glory. This is sadly not working now.

Isn't that change related to the sbt version? If so I don't think there is anything we can do about it.

The executed commands are still available in few ways:

1. sbt last nativeLink - it would show all the outputs, including debug level messagess from the last nativeLink invocation
2. sbt debug;nativeLink - set's the sbt logging level to debug and runs the nativeLink command
3. sbt --debug nativeLink - set's globally the logging level to debug when starting the sbt

Let me followup with the sbt folks. It used to work so not sure now.
