Is the IPFS_LOGGING and IPFS_LOGGING_FMT variables documented anywhere? It took me a while to discover how they work. It doesn't help that the code for this is in a external module.

So as best as I can tell, IPFS_LOGGING is one of: debug, info, notice, warning, error, critical. IPFS_LOGGING_FMT is one of: color, no color.

Is there anything I am missing. It is possible to control the logging of the individual subsystems via the IPFS_LOGGING variable like you can with ipfs log level <subsystem> <level>.

I think this documentation of these environmental variables should go under the help for ipfs log. The documentation should also make clear that ipfs log tail is a different type of log and is not controlled via ipfs log level. It should also make it clear what ipfs log level does control.
