Hello,
I'm using git 2.0.4 and 1.7.10.4 and have discovered an issue with quiet
option on fetch.
Scenario:
I am fetching from one bare repo into another bare repo and fetching
from branch A to branch B.
In the case that the branches have deviated from one another, --quiet
surpresses all output, incl. output to STDERR.
$ pwd
/home/ryan_p/gitrepos/git01.git
$ git fetch --quiet ../git02.git working_branch:master
$ echo $?
1
$ git fetch ../git02.git working_branch:master
Von ../git02
! [zurückgewiesen] working_branch -> master (kein Vorspulen)
However, if I pass a false remote name to "git fetch --quiet" I get the
following:
$ git fetch --quiet ../git02false.git working_branch:master
fatal: '../git02false.git' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
So, I see inconsistent behaviour here.
Further, the "git push" behaviour with the "--quiet" option corresponds
to what the user actually expects:
"-q, --quiet
Suppress all output, including the listing of updated refs,
unless an error occurs. Progress is not reported to the standard error
stream."
I perceive the --quiet option on git fetch as behaving incorrectly and
would like to file this as a bug.
Best Rgs,
Phil.
