Can you be more specific? It seems to work for me: $ rm -rf dst.git && git init --bare -q dst.git && git push dst.git Counting objects: 6, done. Delta compression using up to 8 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (3/3), done. Writing objects: 100% (6/6), 441 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done. Total 6 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) To dst.git * [new branch] master -> master $ rm -rf dst.git && git init --bare -q dst.git && git push -q dst.git [no output] Are you seeing progress reporting, the status table, or something else? Are you using a particular protocol that might invoke a git-remote-* helper that doesn't respect the quiet flag? -Peff -- 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
