You know verbosity flags (-q and -v) are "the last one wins", so I do not
see much point in this concatenation.

Without concatenation I would need to analyze the content
of the variable each time the option is passed to the shell
script. Do you know of a simpler/better way still keeping the
functionality that
$ git pull -q -v --quiet --verbose --quiet gives verbosity=QUIET
and
$ git pull -q -v --quiet --verbose --quiet -v yields verbosity=VERBOSE
?

Wouldn't

       verbosity=
       while :
       do
               case "$1" in
               -q|--quiet) verbosity=-q ;;
               -v|--verbose) verbosity=-v ;;
               ... others ...
               esac
               shift
       done
       git pull $verbosity other options

give the -q for the former and -v for the latter to "git pull"?

Yes that is much simpler and works :). Thanks.
Please see my next patch in a few minutes.
I might not reply before the weekend as I'm pretty busy, btw.
