Hello, It seems that when "git commit" is run with the "-q" option, there are still, from time to time, messages that get printed. With the French locale the message is: Compression automatique du dépôt en tâche de fond pour optimiser les performances. Voir "git help gc" pour toute information sur le nettoyage manuel. >From what I could guess, this is due to the fact that "git commit" calls "git gc --auto", but does not propagate the "-q" option if present. A similar problem was present some time ago with "git fetch" and was solved in the 2-line patch 6fceed3b . I guess that the same should be done for "git commit". Regards, Pierrick
