fetch and pull: learn --progress
Note that in the documentation for git-pull, documentation for the --progress option is displayed under the "Options related to fetching" subtitle via fetch-options.txt. Also, update the documentation of the -q/--quiet option for git-pull to mention its effect on progress reporting during fetching.
