"-q" option to "ssh" is not meant to supress "motd"; it is about warning and diagnostics. From man ssh(1): -q Quiet mode. Causes most warning and diagnostic messages to be suppressed. Only fatal errors are displayed. If a second -q is given then even fatal errors are suppressed, except for those produced due solely to bad arguâ ments. 2. "PrintMotd" defaults to "yes" but it is to specify whether the daemon should print /etc/motd when a user logs in interactively. I didn't think fetch-pack logged in interactively, so why should this matter? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
