Hi,
I have a question related to the output of git gc logs. Let me
explain,

I realized that the message are sent to standard error,
so the question is why is the reason to do that?
The quick solution to my problem of annoying mails is send the output
error to /dev/null
but what happens when an error really occur, there will be no message
to alert me.
Try the --quiet parameter to "git gc" (and other git commands).

Yes, the quiet option works when I do 'git gc', but in the cron file
there is no
git-gc command, only fetch and reset. I suppose that those commands
calls (internally)
to git-gc.
Also I try with -q option in fetch and reset but without results, the
only thing that
works was with 2>/dev/null, but as I mention before, is not a good idea
because
I will miss the real errors messages.
The real question here is why git-gc send those logs to the standard
error instead of
standard output?
