That raises the number of things to improve in the patch to 3 (so far): * the log message clarification. * the code change I mentioned already to hook into the existing "only read the fully specified ref" part, sharing the actual action (i.e. read_ref() to read it, honor quiet and show it by calling show_one()), instead of adding another clause that does it differently (i.e. you didn't do read_ref/quiet?/show_one) * add a test to make sure that the command also works sensibly when --quiet is used. With all of the above, I think the change makes sense.
