 # Debugging bootstrap
 
+There are two main ways to debug bootstrap itself. The first is through println logging, and the second is through the `tracing` feature.
+
 > FIXME: this section should be expanded
 
+## `println` logging
+
+Bootstrap has extensive unstructured logging. Most of it is gated behind the `--verbose` flag (pass `-vv` for even more detail).
+
+If you want to know which `Step` ran a command, you could invoke bootstrap like so:
+
+```
+$ ./x dist rustc --dry-run -vv

+...
+```
+
+This will go through all the recursive dependency calculations, where `Step`s internally call `builder.ensure()`, without actually running cargo or the compiler.
+
+In some cases, even this may not be enough logging (if so, please add more!). In that case, you can omit `--dry-run`, which will show the normal output inline with the debug logging:
+
+```
+      c Sysroot { compiler: Compiler { stage: 0, host: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu }, force_recompile: false }

+
+In most cases this should not be necessary.
+
+TODO: we should convert all this to structured logging so it's easier to control precisely.
