That raises the number of things to improve in the patch to 3 (so
far):

 * the log message clarification.

 * the code change I mentioned already to hook into the existing
   "only read the fully specified ref" part, sharing the actual
   action (i.e. read_ref() to read it, honor quiet and show it by
   calling show_one()), instead of adding another clause that does
   it differently (i.e. you didn't do read_ref/quiet?/show_one)

 * add a test to make sure that the command also works sensibly when
   --quiet is used.

With all of the above, I think the change makes sense.
