Probably wouldn't for that particular one, since what I wanted
to do was "git fetch-pack -v 2>&1 | git name-rev >/var/tmp/1",
so isatty(1) check in setup_name_rev_pager() is defeated by
redirection, and the information I wanted to pass name-rev would
not have passed it anyway.

But this _might_ be useful for other more general cases.  I'm
not sure -- it feels somewhat like a hack, though.
