This is actually changing behavior to
if (show_only && verbose)
print(...)
if show_only
continue
The second part is already there as is, only the printing behavior
actually changes.
So I might be missing the obvious here for the claim of no-op?
Looking up further we have (line 177):
if (show_only)
printf(_("Checking rename of '%s' to '%s'\n"), src, dst);
which prints regardless of verbosity.
