Subject: -q option for git to suppress informational messages?
Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2023 20:53:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231012185308.GB6241@kitsune.suse.cz> (raw)

Hello,

when using git in scripts I find that many git commands insist on
printing informational messages, and the only way to avoid this is to
sent the output to /dev/null.

While some select commands support the -q option to suppres
informational messages many don't.

Since there was recenly some discussion of problems that newcomers could
work on I suppose this could be added to the list if not there already.

Thanks

Michal
