Keep in mind that there could exist clients outside git.git that use modern
pack-index or unpack-objects, but omit sideband support.
I propose this patch instead, although the assumption that the --timeout
option is only used by git-daemon may not be quite right. In this case it
may be better to add a new option that sets the new flag and that
git-daemon has to use.

Subject: [PATCH] upload-pack: squelch progress indicator if client cannot see it
upload-pack runs pack-objects, which generates progress indicator output
on its stderr. If the client requests a sideband, this indicator is sent
to the client; but if it did not, then the progress is written to
upload-pack's own stderr.
If upload-pack is itself run from git-daemon (and if the client did not
request a sideband) the progress indicator never reaches the client and it
need not be generated in the first place. With this patch the progress
indicator is suppressed in this situation.
