get_sha1: avoid repeating ourselves via ONLY_TO_DIE
When the revision code cannot parse an argument like
"HEAD:foo", it will call maybe_die_on_misspelt_object_name(),
which re-runs get_sha1() with an extra ONLY_TO_DIE flag. We
then spend more effort to generate a better error message.
Unfortunately, a side effect is that our second call may
repeat the same error messages from the original get_sha1()
call. You can see this with:
$ git show 0017
error: short SHA1 0017 is ambiguous.
error: short SHA1 0017 is ambiguous.
fatal: ambiguous argument '0017': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
where the second "error:" line comes from the ONLY_TO_DIE
call.
To fix this, we can make ONLY_TO_DIE imply QUIETLY. This is
a little odd, because the whole point of ONLY_TO_DIE is to
output error messages. But what we want to do is tell the
rest of the get_sha1() code (particularly get_sha1_1()) that
the _regular_ messages should be quiet, but the only-to-die
ones should not.
