We added the '-q' to the default value of the 'ssh' svn+*:// scheme some
time ago. The help now reads:
"### Section for configuring tunnel agents." NL
"[tunnels]" NL
"### Configure svn protocol tunnel schemes here. By default, only" NL
"### the 'ssh' scheme is defined. You can define other schemes to" NL
"### be used with 'svn+scheme://hostname/path' URLs. A scheme" NL
"### definition is simply a command, optionally prefixed by an" NL
"### environment variable name which can override the command if it" NL
"### is defined. The command (or environment variable) may contain" NL
"### arguments, using standard shell quoting for arguments with" NL
"### spaces. The command will be invoked as:" NL
"### <command> <hostname> svnserve -t" NL
"### (If the URL includes a username, then the hostname will be" NL
"### passed to the tunnel agent as <user>@<hostname>.) If the" NL
"### built-in ssh scheme were not predefined, it could be defined" NL
"### as:" NL
"# ssh = $SVN_SSH ssh -q" NL
