Feature Request

Provide a way to see what VCS commands are triggered by TCR.

• We currently need this in order to fine tune TCR integration with Perforce.
• This could also be helpful later on when updating or evolving TCR or investigating issues encountered by some users

Feature Description

Add a new command line option allowing to turn on trace for specific components or functionalities. The current need is only for VCS commands, but this will be done in such a way that it can be extended to other components / functionalities.

New command line option: --trace <value> or -T <value>

• By default will be set to none
• If set to vcs, all VCS command calls will be traced along with other usual TCR traces. They will be reported as warnings (yellow) in order to clearly differentiate them from the rest of TCR trace

This setting will be saved in .tcr/config.yml so that the user does not have to use the command line argument every time. It will be saved under config.tcr.trace.

Later on, we could extend the use of this parameter to activate multiple traces (for example tcr -trace vcs -trace toolchain)
