+Output Formatting
+-----------------
+
+The -p option causes '%prog' to bind pipes to the command's stdin,
+stdout and stderr streams, and pipe all output into a continuous
+stream that is displayed in a single pager session.  Project headings
+are inserted before the output of each command is displayed.  If the
+command produces no output in a project, no heading is displayed.
+
+The formatting convention used by -p is very suitable for some
+types of searching, e.g. `repo forall -p -c git log -SFoo` will
+print all commits that add or remove references to Foo.
+
+The -v option causes '%prog' to display stderr messages if a
+command produces output only on stderr.  Normally the -p option
+causes command output to be suppressed until the command produces
+at least one byte of output on stdout.
