            Bug ID: 273180
           Summary: bectl: Add a -q option for mount
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: asomers@FreeBSD.org

It sure would be helpful if "bectl mount" had a -q --quiet option.  When using
this option, a successful mount would print only the mountpoint used, and
nothing else.  For example, instead of:

$ sudo bectl mount 13.2-RELEASE
Successfully mounted 13.2-RELEASE at /tmp/be_mount.PAGF

it would instead print

$ sudo bectl mount -q 13.2-RELEASE
/tmp/be_mount.PAGF

With such an option, one could more easily use bectl in scripts, like this:

RELEASE=13.2-RELEASE
sudo bectl create ${RELEASE}
BASEDIR=`sudo bectl mount -q ${RELEASE}`
