When I run "eix-sync -q" on a system that syncs portage not via rsync, but via git, it is not quiet. Output example: remote: Counting objects: 8491, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (3809/3809), done. remote: Total 8491 (delta 8127), reused 5002 (delta 4650), pack-reused 0 Empfange Objekte: 100% (8491/8491), 2.28 MiB | 0 bytes/s, Fertig. Löse Unterschiede auf: 100% (8127/8127), abgeschlossen mit 3489 lokalen Objekten. Von https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo 6d02d3a..4f2e280 master -> origin/master I'd expect that eix-sync -q only outputs something in case of an error (and this is the behavior when rsync and not git is used). emerge -q --sync works as expected (no output) with git.
