The output of repo sync is entirely internal and quite repetitive:

$ repo sync
remote: Counting objects: 16, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (11/11), done.
remote: Total 11 (delta 6), reused 3 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (11/11), done.

This kind of stuff isn't really interesting to the "average user" who just
wants latest files.  Can you put it under a -v type option?

Second, the final step is not verbose enough:

Syncing work tree:  79% (120/151)

And this is exactly where the "average user" would like to see *more* output:
What files were updated on my machine?

Can you please change repo sync to be more like this:
$ repo sync
Updating repositories....   (maybe do a live % thing here?)
Syncing work tree:
updating:  packages/apps/Calendar/myActivity.java
updating:  packages/apps/Email/providers.xml
..etc...

Possible workaround is to use "repo forall" with a custom script to "git 
fetch/pull".
But this fails when the Manifest changes, I suppose.
