I wasn't suggesting it (I was just saying that these extra messages
are not something we found necessary for consistency with the
original codepath when we added the pathspec support). I wasn't
even thinking about what the original codepath did, i.e. when the
command is run without pathspec.
I too suspect that most of the ${GIT_QUIET:+-q} can just become an
unconditional -q as you do.
