svn copy doesn't honour "--quiet" in 1.7.1 ??

[Zibetti Paolo <pa...@sisal.it>]

With Subversion version 1.6.x, I could add the "--quiet" switch to the
"svn copy" command to suppress all output in case the command succeeds.

With Subversion version 1.7.1 "svn copy --quiet ..."  always prints
informational messages such as "Committed revision 42."
Other commands such as "svn commit", on the contrary, honour the
"-quiet" switch as expected.

Is this an intended behaviour or a bug ?

Thanks, bye

This has been fixed on trunk and nominated for backport to 1.7.2.

That looks like an unintended change in behaviour.  I don't see any
discussion around the time the change (r988627) was made.
