pls silence for that sync method too - thx

eix-sync -q closes stdout; I think doing anything more (like closing stderr or magically "guessing" desired options $emergecmd) does not seem appropriate.
Do this manually if you really want it (and if you know what you are doing)!
You can use something like this in your eix-sync.conf (untested!):

!if $quiet; then exec 2>/dev/null; fi

or

!if $quiet; then Push emergecmd --quiet; fi

ah - right - git outputs to stderr those messages.

FWIW I couldn't get the given examples up and running, but nevertheless - not a bug.
