Although I can't think of a concrete breakage case, you are probably right. Doing so wouldn't save that much, and may cause compatibility trouble. Better forget it. > > 2* We could change "quilt add" not to display the standard message when > > actually adding a file (i.e. the success case) when -q is used.

And I wouldn't, which is why I made it an option :) For some reason, I am fine with "quilt add" shouting at me, but want "quilt edit" to keep quiet. The beauty of quilt is that all you will have to do is add QUILT_ADD_ARGS="-q" to ~/.quiltrc to get the desired behavior. If anyone really wants it, the quiet behavior of "quilt edit" could be made an option as well. However, there seemed to be a consensus on the fact that "quilt edit" was currently too noisy.
