One of my (very few) pet hates with ant is that the depends task displays something when it performs a no-op. This seems counter to other tasks (copy, javac, zip IIRC) and means that my complex build ends up spitting out a lot of output while doing very little. The output itself doesn't exactly qualify as stimulating reading either:
"Deleted 0 out of date files in 0 seconds"
I was wondering if there was any point in preparing a patch to not output/log if 0 files have been deleted. The patch / change would be laughably small but I'm not 100% that it'll sit well with everyone as depends feels like its been around for a few releases now and this would be a change to the output. I could complicate the patch by making it configurable (lognoop="no"??) if that makes people happier although it seems unecessary to me. Alternatively I could live with it as it is and mutter to myself just as I have done so far.
Thoughts?

Send your patch, even if it is small.
I will have a look at it.
Cheers,
Antoine
