Hello all! the current man page of git-pull documents twice the --quiet and --verbose options. fetch-options.txt and merge-options.txt which both documents these options. I choose to "ifndef" the paragraphs in fetch-options.txt because IMHO they give too much details on the --quiet option (see the patch below). Of course we could modify merge-options.txt instead (the --quiet paragraph just says : "operate quietly"), I can provide a patch if you want.

Best regards
-----------------

git-pull.txt includes fetch-options.txt and merge-options.txt which both document the --quiet and --verbose parameters. So we supress the --quiet and --verbose paragraphs if fetch-options.txt is included by git-pull.txt.
