Hi Victoria

This keeps the current behavior of not refreshing when --quiet is given. 
I wonder how disruptive it would be to take the opportunity to get rid 
of that hack and go back the the original behavior of refreshing when 
--quiet is given. There are a couple of assumptions that make me think 
it might be acceptable

1 - anyone using a sparse index wont notice as refreshing the index
     should be fast for them

2 - the large repositories that are affected exist in managed
     environments where an admin who reads the release notes could set
     reset.refresh in a central config so individual users are not
     inconvenienced.

Best Wishes

Phillip
