bug#25418: Proposal to quiet file size modified warning |

I see two different phrasings here: "warning" in the source message vs "error"
in Paul's answer.
Quickly looking through the source:
- should it be treated like a warning? If yes, why does it not use warning()
and/or set an exit code ("2")?
And if it is a warning, then it should perhaps conform to the man-page which
states that all warnings are
suppressed with --quiet.
- should it be treated as an error? If yes, I do not see an exit code ("1")
being set. Is that an oversight?

Ouch, why would one want to suppress that diagnostic? It sounds like a serious
error.
