Thanks, but I wonder if machine-readable is more descriptive than
"porcelain output format", iow, updating commit/status may be better.

The option was meant to mean "output format for Porcelain script writers
to stay machine readable" but it can be misunderstood as "output format
a Porcelain command would produce with chromes and glitters".

I'm happy with that, too. Generally, I tried to go with the majority
with this unifying series. In fact, we've been unhappy with the name of
that option as well, but the usage text is easier to change.
