Subject: [PATCH v4 3/3] reset: warn when refresh_index() takes more than 2 seconds

From: Ben Peart <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2018 15:04:23 -0400

From: Ben Peart <[email-masked]>

refresh_index() is done after a reset command as an optimization.  Because
it can be an expensive call, warn the user if it takes more than 2 seconds
and tell them how to avoid it using the --quiet command line option or
reset.quiet config setting.
