No objection since this is opt-in. I dislike the noisiness of our patch as well. Unfortunately --quiet is too quiet, so you will miss fuzz/offset (maybe you update patches automatically). I wish there was a mode that made patch behave more like GNU patch in terms of noisiness (and no, I don't want to set PATCH to gpatch).
