Hi Shourya,

I'm not really sure if we should have this patch at all since I don't think that set-branch should be printing anything at all.

But I'll give some comments anyway. Hopefully they'll be enlightening.

We typically refer to commits by the "reference" format. You can get that as follows:

	$ git show --pretty=ref -s b57e8119e6
	b57e8119e6 (submodule: teach set-branch subcommand, 2019-02-08)

In addition, I don't think it's necessary to mention me by name in this case.

This is needlessly complicated... Can't this just be written as
	if (!quiet)
