From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

Replace references to '--quiet' with '--no-refresh' in the advice on how to skip refreshing the index. When the advice was introduced, '--quiet' was the only way to avoid the expensive 'refresh_index(...)' at the end of a mixed reset. After introducing '--no-refresh', however, '--quiet' became only a fallback option for determining refresh behavior, overridden by '--[no-]refresh' or 'reset.refresh' if either is set. To ensure users are advised to use the most reliable option for avoiding 'refresh_index(...)', replace recommendation of '--quiet' with '--[no-]refresh'.
