Re: [PATCH 3/3] push: old receive-pack does not understand --quiet

Commit 90a6c7d4 (propagate --quiet to send-pack/receive-pack)
introduced the --quiet option to receive-pack and made send-pack
pass that option. Older versions of receive-pack do not recognize
the option, however, and terminate immediately.

This change restores backwards compatibility by adding a 'quiet'
capability to receive-pack.

Wouldn't this mean that there is no point in adding --quiet command line
option to the receive-pack command? IOW, shouldn't parts of 90a6c7d
(propagate --quiet to send-pack/receive-pack, 2011-07-30) be reverted?

At this late stage in the release cycle, I would rather prefer to revert
the whole commit and leave anything new for the next cycle.
