I think it is the extreme at the same end of the spectrum and I
like it.  (I was tempted to do this but thought there was a reason
those options were ignored by --quiet.)  This is good because it
makes --quiet do what one thinks it does, and what's documented,
with no exceptions (i.e. equivalent to --exit-code > /dev/null).

If anyone actually used the old behavior of ignoring
diff.autorefreshindex (as an optimization, because the script ran
update-index --refresh outside a loop), there could be a --quick
option, or they could use git-diff-files.
