Following is a patch to complete the changes discussed
here http://marc.info/?l=git&m=121529226023180&w=2.

I hope it makes sense and doesn't break something else.

With this simple one-liner patch applied I no longer see
the following remote messages as no-progress is correctly
sent to the remote site:
remote: Counting objects: 84102, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (24720/24720), done.
remote: Total 84102 (delta 60949), reused 80810 (delta 57900)

If you're doing that, remove the "args.no_progress =" from the previous 
line, which was there to have that effect (but not so clearly). Aside from 
that, it looks good to me.

Thanks Daniel, that makes a lot of sense.

I think such patch would be too harsh for IDE plugin developers. When
git is run from IDE, the isatty(1) will be true. But progress
information will be still useful, to display an operation progress to
user. Please provide a way to force output of progress (for example
using environment).

Regards,
Constantine

Probably progress.h ought to have something for whether progress bars make 
sense, that uses isatty(1) with an environment variable override. 
Conceptually, transport.c should be figuring out whether the verbosity of 
the operation suggests progress bars, and should pass off to something 
else the determination of whether we can actually output progress bars in 
particular.

Hi Constantine,

this only fixes what was wrong: If you call "git clone -q" args.no_progress
was meant to be 1 but wasn't due to a small error.
If isatty(1) returns 1 then args.no_progress=0, so you will get progress
logging in that case - assuming you haven't supplied -q.

To get progress logging call without -q _and_ have isatty(1)==1.
