Package: quilt
Version: 0.60-7
Severity: normal

The -q option does not behave like in other programs: "quiet, no
messages". An example:

    $ quilt push --fuzz=3 -a -q
    Removing patch patches/10-lib-argp.patch
    Restoring src/Makefile.in
    No patches applied

    $ quilt pop -a -q
    No patch removed

Please make "-q" to not display any messages but return only a shell
status code.

Not all other programs behave this way, actually (or even should). For
me, quiet means "please less messages", which is the way quilt works.
If you want absolutely no message, then pipe quilt into /dev/null.

Closing the bug, as it feels buggy to me. 

Sorry for the delay, I was unsure of what to do.
