+Logging
+-------
+
+Binman normally operates silently unless there is an error, in which case it
+just displays the error. The -D/--debug option can be used to create a full
+backtrace when errors occur.
+
+Internally binman logs some output while it is running. This can be displayed
+by increasing the -v/--verbosity from the default of 1:
+
+ 0: silent
+ 1: warnings only
+ 2: notices (important messages)
+ 3: info about major operations
+ 4: detailed information about each operation
+ 5: debug (all output)
