Logging could be better for very large projects

[NickHeiner]

I have a project with thousands of files. When I run a codemod across all of them, the terminal output looks like this:

When the entire terminal screen is filled with the same Sending 50 files to free worker... message, I can't tell if new lines are being created or not, because they're all the same.

Potential solution: prefix each line with a counter. Or add some other information that will change on each log line:

[0] Sending 50 files to free worker...
[1] Sending 50 files to free worker...
[2] Sending 50 files to free worker...

or

Sending 50 files to free worker... (8000 remaining)
Sending 50 files to free worker... (7950 remaining)
Sending 50 files to free worker... (7900 remaining)

I think verbose=0 should also remove this log

Is the repository with the thousands of files an open source project (so I can see the error in action) or is it something private?

You can run a codemod on any large OSS project to repro this. :)
