When a user asks us to force a mv and overwrite the
destination, we print a warning. However, since a typical
use would be:
$ git mv one two
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=two
$ git mv -f one two
warning: overwriting 'two'
this warning is just noise. We already know we're
overwriting; that's why we gave -f!
This patch silences the warning unless "--verbose" is given.
