+
+When using 'git annex repair --verbose' the '--verbose' option is not passed to 'git fsck', on large annexes it takes ages and you don't have feedback...
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+Just run 'git-annex repair --verbose'
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+not important, this is just a suggestion
