Yes, the quiet option works when I do 'git gc', but in the cron file
there is no
git-gc command, only fetch and reset. I suppose that those commands
calls (internally)
to git-gc.
Also I try with -q option in fetch and reset but without results, the
only thing that
works was with 2>/dev/null, but as I mention before, is not a good idea
because
I will miss the real errors messages.
The real question here is why git-gc send those logs to the standard
error instead of
standard output?
