I think a '--quiet' option would be nice to have. I wouldn't need it much personally, so I'm probably not going to work on it, but it would be great if you could work on that. The best place to get started with contributing is to read Documentation/SubmittingPatches document. The CONTRIBUTING.md in the git-for-windows repository [1] may also have some helpful pointers. Some of it is windows specific, but a lot of it is generally applicable.

I'm happy to help reviewing these patches, and give more pointers to help you get started. Another useful resource is the #git-devel IRC channel on Freenode, where you may be able to get some help (may need some patience though :))
