Subject: git fetch -v not at all verbose?

Hi!
On many of my trees (with linux kernel), git fetch is slower than git clone.
Even more annoyingly, it would hang sometimes for tens of minutes without any
output, even if -v is supplied.

stracing it shows a ton of lines like the following:
16324 read(10, "ACK 4bbdfe65d23014f539fec4227260"..., 51) = 51
16324 read(10, "0037", 4)               = 4
16324 read(10, "ACK 322c06560fa314b04a6302ea03c0"..., 51) = 51
16324 read(10, "0037", 4)               = 4
16324 read(10, "ACK 848ea2043b128b5947851866a114"..., 51) = 51
16324 read(10, "0037", 4)               = 4

Is there some way to make got fetch show progress at this stage,
or even better, can it be made faster somehow?

Thanks!
