$ git --version
git version 1.5.4.3

And when there is no change in the repo

$ git fetch --q; echo $?
0

no messages and no error , but when there is a change to syncronize

$ git fetch --q; echo $?
remote: Counting objects: 7, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (5/5), done.
remote: Total 5 (delta remote: 2), reused 0 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (5/5), done.
 From git@boss:sandbox
    3e4df7f..b92d27c  master     -> origin/master
0

here come the messages but the return value is still 0

I will try to update git to v1.6.5.6 and see what happend
