Request: Use '--quiet' option when running git-clone at build start up

At build startup, TravisCI does a git-clone of the git-repo that it is going to build.

This is a feature request to have TravisCI run that git-clone with the “–quiet” option to suppress the 500+ lines of output from git’s progress meters that show up every build.

Docs: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone#Documentation/git-clone.txt---quiet

Also, doing a ‘–depth 50’ may be too much, why not just ‘–depth 1’? BTW, my company uses the Enterprise version of Travis. Many thanks!

@native-api Many thanks for the pointer. I should’ve known that this was controllable via the .travis.yml :woozy_face:
