Any reason why ansible-pull shouldn't have a -v option?

I don't want to an ssh key, so running ansible-playbook locally doesn't work here.

Thanks.

What? ansible-pull is just a thin wrapper around a ansible -m git call and  
an ansible-playbook invocation. It is intended to be run from cron, so -v  
isn't typically needed, but there's no reason not to add it, I suppose. What  
are you looking to accomplish though?

I'm trying to debug some task where the variables aren't working the way I thought they should, so I added a debug task, but I can only get the ouput for that when using -v....
