Do you mean, showing it in a natural language form, or machine-parsable? If the later, there was a patch series doing essentially this: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/209240 It doesn't seem to have been merged.

I tend to agree with you, but the idea has explicitly been rejected in the past. The problem with an option like this is that it would also disable the advices that may be added in the future. By letting people disable the advices one by one, people see new advices as they arrive. You may think of it like "do not show this message again" tickboxes in some graphical user interfaces.
