Description Tomasz Zarna CLA 2012-02-08 10:53:47 EST
For long running tasks that affect remote resources (e.g. git fetch, git push) having an info about when they have finished would be quite handy. From what Gosia told me, currently, when a task is done, it's removed from the file system/preference store. For certain type of tasks, like fetching a specific remote on a clone, preserving the task would allow us to display the info about task's finished time in the UI.

The trend is to reduce the number of tasks as much as possible. If we need history for some commands we should do it other way.
