I\'m writing a graphical URI handler for git:// links with bash and zenity, and I\'m using a zenity \'text-info\' dialog to show git\'s clone output while it\'s running, usi

Answer 1

I think that at least some of progress reports gets silenced when output is not a terminal (tty). I'm not sure if it applies to your case, but try to pass --progress option to 'git clone' (i.e. use git clone --progress ).

Though I don't know if it is what you wanted to have.
