This is probably enough for what people actually care about (when stdout isn't a tty and isn't /dev/null, people are likely to ask for "quiet" anyway, because this command's output isn't interesting after the fact). But no-progress is probably a good idea anyway. Oh, and you're fixing the corresponding regressions in fetch, which nobody seems to have mentioned previously.
