Re: [PATCH 2/2] prune.c: only print informational message in show_only or verbose mode

I still think your 2/2 is worth doing independently, though. It is silly
that git-prune will not mention pruned objects without "-v", but will
mention temporary files. They should be in the same category.

Ok, so I'll queue it as a separate topic with a different
justification.

Subject: [PATCH] prune.c: only print informational message in show_only or verbose mode

"git prune" reports removal of loose object files that are no longer
necessary only under the "-v" option, but unconditionally reports
removal of temporary files that are no longer needed.

The original thinking was that presence of a leftover temporary file
should be an unusual occurrence that may indicate an earlier failure
of some sort, and the user may want to be reminded of it.  Removing
an unnecessary loose object file, on the other hand, is just part of
the normal operation.  That is why the former is always printed out
and the latter only when -v is used.

But neither report is particularly useful.  Hide both of these
behind the "-v" option for consistency.
