In case of waiting on something longer than usual there is no information what is going on.
Today's github degradation of services showed that on spot light.

for instance this command printed the error after several minutes, before it was just as blind processing

build-chain build full_downstream -f 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/${GROUP}/droolsjbpm-build-bootstrap/${BRANCH:main}/.ci/full-downstream-config.yaml' -o bc -u https://github.com/kiegroup/appformer/pull/1374 --skipParallelCheckout [ERROR] Invalid definition file.

Maybe what we can do is if it is taking a lot of time then we can can post a status message at regular intervals of time?

i guess there is an expected time for some kind of requests so if it overruns that limit just give that status message?

maybe not just for overrunning the limit. some tasks that build-chain performs are time consuming, so i think it would be nice to get something printed at regular intervals when it is doing some long running task
