Subject: [PATCH] Honor git-reset -q by silencing progress updates.
Message-ID: <32206B67-D97A-459E-BA48-D3B343D775F3@37signals.com>

```
When running git-reset in a non-interactive setting, the -q switch
works for everything except the progress updates. This patch attempts
to extend the application of -q to suppress that, too.

Please do not do unnecessary S/MIME nor format=flawed.  It makes reviewing
and application of the patches inconvenient.
