I agree with the above, which is why I don't want a promise to remove
the "-q" option to cause Git 2.0 to be delayed.  It would be better to
schedule it for Git 3.0, or for another unspecified future git
release.

I thought the 2.0 boundary was a time for changes that everyone
already knew we should make, where we had been waiting for a good
moment to change behavior while giving people adequate warning to
avoid disrupting them too much.  We have a good collection of those
for 2.0, and the next batch can wait until 3.0.

Sorry for the lack of clarity,
Jonathan
