We probably want to keep them.
I support mapping these options to a verbosity level internally, but please keep --quiet around [and its aliases -q and --silent] as a user visible option. Lots of commands recognize -q/--quiet/--silent as meaning "no output except in case of errors" (or in some cases "no output other than exit status", e.g. grep(1)) and we want to keep that global consistency. zw _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
