I realize that I more-or-less repeated what I already said for the second
round, so let's try a different approach.
How about replacing the three patches with something like this?

Subject: push --porcelain: usability updates
"git push --porcelain" is meant for Porcelain scripts to read from; there
is no reason to give advice messages meant for the user under that mode.
When reporting the update status, the name of the destination and
"Everything up-to-date" message were shown to the standard error stream,
but that is unfriendly when a Porcelain script is reading from us. Send
them to the standard output to make it easier for them.
